Paul Jacobson: A black Google start screen?

  • Jonathan Sutherland · 1 year ago
    Google Germany had one a few weeks ago when we all were asked to turn of our lights for 15 mins at 20:00



    At first I thought something was wrong with my monitor with the black search page. It certainly caught your attention.

    Check out this web site: blackle.com. It uses the google custom search but the landing page is black.

    Hi Jonathan



    That is pretty interesting. I should try find that post I read or some info on the possible energy saving if the Google home page is changed to black.



    Thanks for the link Pablo. I'll take a look!

    A black background saves energy only with CRTs. Google had a post on their blog about just that.
