1) Brainstorm ideas to draw people to your page
2) Create a "feel good" environmentalist spiel
3) Wait for the inevitable blogs and media to figure out and plaster your URL all over
4) Sign up ads with newly found mass-traffic
5) Profit!!
6) Sell your portion and re-do it again later
*twirls finger in air

In the stock market this is called pump and dump.

So funny.

But a black background with white text is easier on the eyes, especially if you have to read a lot on the computer. White is bright so it stands out and you don't have to focus as much.

I find the black and grey here just fine.

MAN that is so retarded.

At least they didn't call it Niggle.

Maybe PR should save the environment by switching to all night maps lol.

Retarded as it may be... I like how easy it is on the eyes.

thats probably a joke. i cant see how it couldnt be.

electricity comes from hydroelectric, wind, and solar power too, and doesnt hurt the environment. someone should tell them to push those energy sources instead of that website. but like i said, since its probably a joke, it probably doesnt matter at all.

Blake, thanks alot man. I'm actually using GoogleBlack as my new home page mainly cause it looks badass along with the pitch black backgrounds on all my monitors. Besides I was only using a generic speed test site anyway and the bright white of it would mash my eyes up sometimes late at night.
