Wasteful Thinking

iBlackle is a parody. I have started it with that in mind, but I realized it doesn't really 'act' like one. So today, I have decided to make a small change:
I have changed the "n Watt-hours saved" into "n Watt-hours Wasted". The counter mechanism is untouched, and honest as from the day i activated it last Nov 15, 2007. Only the suffix was changed from "saved" to "wasted".
The point of this parody is that by being aware of how much energy we actually waste on senseless searching, we can then take measures to minimize our energy-wasting activities (such as using this parody search engine!).
Right now, you are wasting your energy reading this st*pid post, so get back to useful work!

Kilowatt-hour Counter Started

To perpetuate Blackle's tradition of the legendary 'Kilowatt-hours saved' counter, I have now started iBlackle.com's very own kilowatt-hour counter! This marks the date and we will see how much energy iBlackle saves.
