Today, while idling on the internet between two cover letters, I discovered a really great project: The World Community Grid is a non-profit project involving circa 100,000 volunteers, each of them contributing to healthcare scientific research in an original way. It's quite simple: Each volunteer installs a free software using idle computer resources to process scientific data, which creates a huge amount of cumulated calculation capacities available for scientific research.
Maybe some of you were already familiar with this computer network concept since with the Seti@Home project, with their quest for Extraterrestrial Intelligence. If you value the life of 40 millions fellow human beings living with HIV, it's worth giving a try to the World Community Grid's new project: FightAIDS@Home. The project's title is quite self explanatory.
