New "Green" Search page w/Google power

Today I stumbled upon this alternative, Google-search-powered eco-friendly Search tool called bSaves. It stands for b[lack]Saves - as in, watt power. You can make it your default home page or search page. It looks a little something like this:



This is awesome! Of course you've noticed I prefer my black-background'ed web pages...

As the creators say on their "About" page:

"...bSaves is designed to save energy by displaying mostly black pixels on the computer monitor. It is known that white web pages require around 74 watts to be displayed, while black web pages use only 59 watts....

The Classic Google has over 200 million search queries made per day. Our ultimate goal is for everyone to switch over to bSaves. This would save 750 Megawatt-Hours a year!"

I was delighted to discover this Search site, as it's using Google, my favorite search engine, (which I wouldn't want to do without); it's saving energy and the environment, which is fundamental; and, the icing on the cake, for me--the fact that I find black-background web pages more soothing on the eyes to read. (So long as their text color isn't some kind of screaming, popping, flourescent red or electric aqua or something...that makes my optic nerve feel like it's popping right out of my skull...!)

Click it -- save it -- email it -- try it out, & tell others. Even just one. :)
