Blackle: energy saving search

Since it's so cool nowadays to be green and eco-friendly, what is better than an eco-friendly search engine? Well, your wish has been answered. It claims to have saved 1,654,566.720 Watts of energy overall which is staggering. But, it isn't perfect. It's custom search, not full search, searching is almost the same, but not fully the same.

It is becoming popular for schools to use it, at mine and a nearby one the computing labs have it as a home-page. I'm sure work places have it as well. So, if you want to save energy (apparently) then head over to blackle.com

I posted about this on one of my old blogs ages and ages and AGES ago and I do use it from time to time but not as often. It doesn't save all that much energy and why not use iGoogle with a black theme instead?

Yes, but this is all about people being "I'm saving the planet" in a fake state of mind.
