Link of the week - How to help humanity?

Many people have heard of SETI@Home, a distributed computing project looking for extraterrestrial life. Volunteers can also join distributed computing projects looking for disease cures, predicting climate change or searching for gravitational waves.

Interested in using your computer to help the world? Want to contribute, but don’t know how to best start?

If you want to know more about volunteer distributed computing projects, including how to join, Dimitris Hatzopoulos’ link-rich article will tell you all you need to know. He outlines the major volunteer computing projects and what to consider when choosing one (or several) to support.

So go on. Why not join over a million people and two million computers in 234 countries? Donate your computer's idle CPU time to your choice of humanitarian non-profit scientific research projects. There’s something for everyone!
