I'm not sure yet -- I could change it a little if I gain ownership.

I looked into this for my company. Our IT department seriously looked at changing everyone's homepage to Blackle. I did some tests, and the results were slightly different (not a huge problem). The main problem is that it only really saved money on CRTs. LCD monitors are backlit all the time, and that's the main power drain. It costs no less to display black than to display another colour.

We reckoned it would be greenwash with even less substance than usual, but the main workforce would be upset to see a different browser window there.
