From here....

But heard it only saves energy on CRT and 24" and higher monitors. This is because it uses less energy to display a black background than a white one.

So if you have a large LCD it apparently saves energy? I'm not sure, but it's definitely easier on the eyes.

Your sarcasm meter is working just fine. :)

I did actually look at the back of my LCD and didn't see any lights... but I posted it to be funny. So, meh

Well, I actually like this Darkoogle.com

Like what scorpmatt have said, is easier the eye.

By the way, it suppose to just remind us to save energy whenever we see the black background.
