What is Laalten.com ?

Laalten.com is a custom search engine powered by Google. It integrates all searches at single place: Web, Email, News, Sports, Finance, Social Networking... everything. No hassle of opening multiple websites first and then searching within them. First the black background of this site saves electricity**. Then it negates opening of multiple sites for search, thus saving more time & energy.

Why the name "Laalten" ?

In many rural areas, people still dont have electricity. They use lantern(Laalten) etc for lightening their homes at night. We, the privileged onces, enjoy benefits of electricity, while there are people out there who dont have it even for their basic needs. The name "Laalten" is used for reminding us about them.

4. Give us a mention on blogs, forums etc.

**Take at look at Google, who gets about 200 million queries a day. Let's assume each query is displayed for about 10 seconds; that means Google is running for about 550,000 hours every day on some desktop. Assuming that users run Google in full screen mode, the shift to a black background will save a total of 15 (74-59) watts. That turns into a global savings of 8.3 Megawatt-hours per day, or about 3000 Megawatt-hours a year. Now take into account that about 25 percent of the are CRTs, and at 10 cents a kilowatt-hour, that's $75,000, a goodly amount of energy and dollars for changing a few color codes.
