I’m talking about CPU cycles. Odds are good that most of yours are going to waste.
So what should you be doing with them? Donating them to charity, of course! There are lots of organizations doing research that need more computing power than they have. You can help by running some of their research in the background on your computers.
I tend to lean towards donating for medical research, but there are a lot of options out there. Installing and setting up is easy. Take a few minutes, and check out these websites:
Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing
There are projects that are working on curing some of the worst human diseases, and they could use your help.

I love your site!
