  Grid.org is a single destination site for large-scale research projects powered by the United Devices grid computing solution, Grid MP Global. From the Cancer Research Project sponsored by Intel and the University of Oxford to the Anthrax Research Project sponsored by Intel and Microsoft, the Grid MP Global @ grid.org has been put to use for research and analysis projects of groundbreaking scope. With the participation of over 2 million devices worldwide, grid.org projects driven by the Grid MP Global have achieved record levels of speed and success in processing data. This is a brand new program that was released November 16, 2004. I am now running this 24 hours a day instead of the programs listed below because I feel it provides the most benefits to the most people at this time. As of 5 December 2004 GRID.ORG has processed almost 377 THOUSAND YEARS worth of computer time! |

| Climateprediction.net
is
the largest experiment to try and produce a forecast of the climate in
the 21st century. To do this, we need people around the world to give
us time on their computers - time when they have their computers
switched on, but are not using them to their full capacity. |

This
is actually a website
that sells anti-Bush paraphernalia.
While I don't tend to advocate the purchase of goods... it seems
this may be the only way for people to voice their opposition to what
may be the greatest mistake America has ever committed. |
