It wasn't me. You can't prove anything.

Blackel

Someone wined about how Google could save energy across the planet by changing the background of their web page to black instead of white. A bunch of people did experiments and found that CRTs did save a bit of energy when a black background is used. LED monitors showed no discernible change.

I find the gray on black screen much easier on the eyes. It is just an experiment. Sounds all green and liberal to me. Something I wonder about though, are the revenues from the google adds going to some green charity? I didn't bother with the research. The about blackel doesn't mention it. I just pose the question and move on.
