The Eco-friendly Search Engine…An Oxymoron?

GOOGLE is all about black power these days.
The newest wave of green consciousness? Eco-friendly search engine use.
I got this forward the other day:

“If Google had a black screen, taking into account the huge number of times
this search engine is used, 750 mega watts/hour of energy per year would
be saved. In recognition of this fact, Google has created a black version
of its search engine, called Blackle, with exactly the same functions as the
white version, but with lower energy consumption. Bookmark it today and
pass it along: http://www.blackle.com/"

Ok, so this is the point where I’m supposed to say “OH WOW…I really love the eco-friendly version of Google! How cool and hipster like! GO GREEN! I’m going to do my part in saving the world by buying $200 free trade Levi’s jeans, $80 organic dish rags AND by using Blackle all the time!”
I tried it.
BUT
It’s just not the same.
Where are the images, the maps, and the news links? Where are the advanced search options? Especially the annoying ads on the sides? (You think you hate those ads… until they’re not there anymore…it’s like Times Square without the irksome neon billboards everywhere…it’s just not right and you just can't see anything because it's too dark).

Even worse… it doesn’t give you the same results as the original Google (believe me, I tested it multiple times with really important search terms such as “Say ain’t so, Anderson Cooper really is gay?”).

So here are the two choices everyone faces now they know Blackle exists:
A. To ignore Blackle and slowly but surely continue to kill the planet and piss off Al Gore by continuing to search with the original Google.
Or
B. To be a cool, vegan hipster that uses Blackle instead of Google and has a completely narrow view of the world due to the limited information on Blackle.

Until Blackle improves, I’ll take my chances with Al.
