World Community Grid: Team UserFriendly.Org by Didactylos 2008-08-27 00:57:30

Team UserFriendly.Org

World Community Grid has passed the 200 million results mark. To celebrate this event, WCG ran a Team Challenge: THE 200 MILLIONTH RESULT RACE. Team UserFriendly.Org came in first! Congratulations, everyone. In just 25 days, we clocked up 72 180 results. Result!

I'm a Community Advisor, so I can't accept the challenge prize. Instead, it will go to second place: L'Alliance Francophone. Congratulations, L'Alliance Francophone - Team UserFriendly.Org salute you.

The World Community Grid is a grid computing project whose mission "[...] is to create the world's largest public computing grid to tackle projects that benefit humanity." Their current projects are Nutritious Rice for the World, AfricanClimate@Home, Help Conquer Cancer, Discovering Dengue Drugs – Together, FightAIDS@Home and Human Proteome Folding Phase 2.

Certificates: Welcome to Team UserFriendly.Org, may your crunching be productive and trouble-free!

Last team we overtook: Slashdot Users

This will be a daily post, if there are no objections. Please, come and help out. I really can't think of a better use for my spare CPU cycles, or yours either.
