3. I've been using Blackle (when I remember) for some months now.
Blackle is Google in this black format. Supposed to cut energy usage by lowering the power draw of your monitor. It's a million little steps like this that will lpull our asses out of the flames.

9. And a heartfelt "Enjoy your good taste" to you.
So glad you like a web page that does absolutely nothing a web page is supposed to do. FYI: that is to communicate.
