Nope

It doesn't save any power on LCDs which is what most people have these days. With LCDs, the backlight is always on and the pixels open or close. In fact, Blackle INCREASES power consumption on most LCDs (which currently have a 75% market share). So their claims are bogus.

And this is offtopic.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
