When the Parody becomes the Parodied

I couldn't believe my eyes. I thought that Google hacked my iBlackle logo! Google finally turned their search page into black! And take note of the message at the lower part. It seems so like iBlackle!
The snapshot you see of the Search Giant's page will probably last only an hour, but it will forever be in the annals of iBlackle's history!
What makes me so happy is that Google supports environmental causes such as Earth Hour.
And in this particular case, the parody became the parodied, but for a wonderful reason. Environmental Awareness!
Now, what are you waiting for?! Turn off your lights!

Earth Hour: All Black on March 29 @ 8pm

Turn all your lights off March 29, 2008 at 8pm. It's called Earth Hour. Support this cause to raise awareness on environmental issues such as Climate Change, Carbon Footprint, and so on.
It would be a great time for a candle-light dinner date with your love, eh?
But for the skeptical ones, suggest to them to gaze at the stars on this hour. If the whole city participates in this event it would be a perfect hour for city-dwellers to get a good view of the constellations. Inform your local police about this event, though. And be safe.
Its not the actual energy savings that count anymore. Its about raising Global Consciousness on Ecology.
