Google Toolbar is now more efficient than
ever. They added a new feature to help
Folding@Home, a non-profit research project at
Stanford University that is trying to understand the structure of proteins so they can
develop better treatments for a number of illnesses. This feature
allows your computer to send the result of processed data to Folding@Home as
a way of distributed computing. The project is a sibling of
SETI@Home, the world's largest
distributed computing project based in the
University of California, Berkeley.
I've been contributing to SETI@Home for a couple of years and highly recommend
installing Google Toolbar to share the power of your CPU with scentific
projects.
