Topic: United Devices

I just found another one for finding cures for diseases, but it seems kinda overload to me. I dotn want to do twoprojects at once. The current one we are doing seems sufficent.

As this forum isn't just to keep track of the Teams processing I think its a good idea to keep an eye on what else is available while working on this project. Also some people may feel better contributing to other more worthwhile projects (and it would be interesting to hear their feedback on their experiences).

Here are some links:

I've got to say when these puzzles are cracked this project really appeals to me: http://www.demo.cs.brandeis.edu/golem

I'm interested to see there has been a call to boycott SETI for not making their code generally available.

Anyone else get a little SkyNet feeling when they see things like Legion: Worldiwde Virtual Computing?:

Although this is looking ahead what are the criteria for the next project:

1. Ability to join as a team.

2. Stats.

Any others?
