Heart of Darkness

Are you a frequent Googler? Concerned about energy usage? Well, set your home page to http://www.blackle.com. It's the same old Google, only the background is black. It takes more power to display a white page than a black one.

Smarty-pants Doogie Houser used a blue background in Word when writing his electronic diaries. It was quite irritating to look at. I wonder if he did it to earn carbon credits.

Vanessa, that's fascinating. I had no idea a black Google page existed. I'm going to start using it!

Thanks!
