Low energy web site design

White on Black web designs are quite fashionable, and in some cases could save lot of energy. They tend to be a bit hard on the brain though, after a while.

I'm not sure if they only save energy on CRT displays, but there are still a lot of those about anyway.

There is some interesting advice on energy use of different colours and screen savers.

EcoIron has also come up with a low energy palette for web designs. It uses white but only for highlights and accents.

The best way to save energy is to remember to switch off when you have finished ... You could even remind your visitors to do that. Switch off now!
