Hai friends,
We all know about the search engine Blackle but seldom use it due to various reasons. A great initiative to save energy. Let’s see how.
How is Blackle saving energy?
Blackle was created by Heap Media to remind us all of the need to take small steps in our everyday lives to save energy. Blackle searches are powered by Google Custom Search.
Blackle saves energy because the screen is predominantly black. "Image displayed is primarily a function of the user's color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen”.
Where did Blackle got the inspiration?
Since then there has been skepticism about the significance of the energy savings that can be achieved and the cost in terms of readability of black web pages.
- There is value in the concept because even if the energy savings are small, they all add up.
- Secondly we feel that seeing Blackle every time we load our web browser reminds us that we need to keep taking small steps to save energy.
Set Blackle as your home page. This way every time you load your Internet browser you will save a little bit of energy. Remember every bit counts! - You will also be reminded about the need to save energy each time you see the Blackle page load.
Spread the word about Blackle by telling your friends and family to set it as their home page
