Black uses less energy on CRT(big, old) monitors. It uses a very small bit *more* energy on flat screen monitors. ]
I don't think that Blackle is run by Google. It may just have the same format..

"Blackle is an energy-saving search engine developed by Heap Media, Australia.[1]. It uses the Google search engine (which it derives income from), and is believed to save energy in CRT monitors because the screen is predominantly black.
Contrary to popular beliefs, it is not an alternative developed by or affiliated with Google at all."
Yet, some people say that on Wikipedia, anyone can edit the information.. so I don't know if that's true..
Hope I helped! ♥ ]
