Save our planet - one pixel at a time!

Millions of daily use the search engine "Google."

Whether it was ever thought already about the energy consumption of the white page? Proven Fact is that a brighter color screen uses more electricity than a Darker. Logical is not it?

Now even been calculated that each day 8 megawatt-hour could be saved (approximately € 52,000) if only Google would change the background of his page from white to black. ( all facts )

This is precisely why an action was launched, which offers such a black Google home page.

For more information about Blackle is Blackle itself at or on Wikipedia .

Trillian for Mac! Soon also available for Linux?

Yesterday it was announced that the Cerulean Studios now also developing a Mac version of Trillian. In her blog post this repeatedly stressed that this is only the development of a surface and the core, which is the same as in Windows, Flash and iPhone version.

Seems as if from a browser-independent version of Linux is not so absurd as it was with Trillian third

Finally made ​​the WordPress 2.3 update

But a little later than planned, I am now on the update of WordPress made to version 2.3.

In the beginning everything went well. Backup done, uploaded new data, but then came the disappointment.

The only risky to see what was on the screen a blank white page!

Well, then went through plugins and updated in order. After the error in the plugin then " Markdown was found ", could finally the new features of WordPress 2.3 will be tested.

Much has been discussed already, the new Tagfunktion by WordPress, with developers such as Ultimate Tag Warrior wanted (the UTW) make it unnecessary, at least in some features.

When finally all the links, and function calls in my template of UTW was removed it went to the "testing" of new features and even browsing the WordPress Docs ( en ) which there is essentially only two functions that use tags. Once " the_tags () ", which related to a post tags, and outputs the" wp_tag_cloud () ", which generates a tagcloud tags with weights.

Finally, I can only say that the new achievements in the field of "tagging" for most people most likely will not be really useful, especially since bliebte functions, such as missing Metataggeneration. But it is still version 2.4 ;-)

New Game Section

After the old section of flash game is met with great success, I've decided between my other projects yet to open a base for Flash games.

Now here's the result: games.body-snatcher.de

I made this decision because, first, is the administering of the much lighter and made it faster and get new games on my second, so that those who deal only with the games, and do not visit the blog, comment and vote, and can .


For the preparation of the site AV Arcade in the latest version (number 3) is used with the latest bug fixes. Since this script but not in the generated HTML code to my needs was fair, but had a little more time than planned to be invested in the restructuring and change the code.
In my opinion it was worth it for sure!

Have fun BODY-snatcher
