Bill Emerson mentioned the SETI at home project in today's lecture. I participate in a similar project called World Community Grid. Both projects are a form of distributed computing. World Community Grid uses the world's largest computing grid to conduct scientific research projects for the benefit of humanity, such as fighting childhood cancer. It is funded and operated by IBM. I use it on my laptop at home and it runs whenever the laptop is idle. I recommend getting involved as it's an easy way to do some good without any financial or time commitment.
