Nice looking projects

Post by UBT - Glenn »

Hi guys (and gals if there are any ;)

Just wondered if there were any nice looking projects running so that when im crunching data its shows nice glowy things on the screen (like seti, Leishmaniasis) as there is nothing better than doing some good and have the screen look interesting.... and also makes me look intelligent when the wife asks ;)

Also is there a list of ACTIVE projects somewhere as the one i just looked at half the projects were just deadlinks...

Also AQUA@home? is it dead? id like to run this but the link dies..

Many thanks and sorry for all the questions.

Aqua died recently - the Company running it, pulled the Project.

Milkyway were working on one a while back - holiday student doing it - not sure how far they got, might be worth a nose around - project is about mapping parts of the milkyway Galaxy, a serious long term project (very long term rofl)
