Change the World . . . with Your Computer

This is a really good thing - please take 30 seconds to read it and then another minute to join. Other than that it won't take up any more of your time and it is completely free of charge. Thank you.

When your computer is on but you are not using it, the World Community Grid software can use it to perform calculations that help speed up the process to find a cure and vaccin to HIV/AIDS and other problems that plague humanity. You don't have to spend any of your time or money, simply download the free software from www.worldcommunitygrid.org to start doing good.

110.000 people (December 2005) have already joined the World Community Grid and their combined computer power equals that of one of the world's ten fastest super computers.
WritersToYou.com has over 25.000 visitors each month - together we can make a difference by joining the World Community Grid!

To join - simply go to www.worldcommunitygrid.org and follow the instructions.

When installing the software you can select to join the team WritersToYou.com, then we will all be able to see statistics on our combined efforts.

Don't wait - join today!

P.s.
The UN estimate that in 2004 there were more than 40 million people around the world living with HIV, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus. The virus has affected the lives of men, women and children all over the world. Currently, there is no cure in sight, only treatment with a variety of drugs.

WritersToYou Joins World Community Grid

Millions of personal computers sit idly on desks and in homes worldwide. During this idle time, the mysteries of science and space continue to elude us. What if each of the world’s estimated 650 million PCs could be linked to focus on humanity’s most pressing issues?

To make this vision a reality, WritersToYou.com has become a partner of World Community Grid, joining the IBM Corporation and a group of more than 60 leading companies, associations, foundations and academic institutions. WritersToYou.com is encouraging its members and visitors to contribute their idle PC time to World Community Grid at www.worldcommunitygrid.org.

World Community Grid uses grid technology to establish a permanent, flexible infrastructure that provides researchers with a readily available pool of computational power that can be used to solve problems plaguing humanity. Grid technology joins together many individual computers, creating a large system with massive computational power that far exceeds the power of a few supercomputers. Importantly, World Community Grid is easy and safe to use.

To join, members and visistors should go to www.worldcommunitygrid.org and simply download and install a free, small software program on their computers. When idle, your computers request data from World Community Grid’s server. Computers then perform computations using this data, send the results back to the server and prompt it for a new piece of work.

Over the last year, World Community Grid ran the Human Proteome Folding Project, which has been providing scientists with data on how individual proteins within the human body affect human health, enabling them to develop new cures for diseases like lyme disease, malaria and tuberculosis. Scientists now have descriptions of 120,000 protein domains that are critical to human well-being; without the benefit of this free grid technology, it would have taken 5 years to get these results, compared with just 12 months on World Community Grid.

On November 21 2005, World Community Grid launched FightAIDS@Home. FightAIDS@Home, which is sponsored by The Scripps Research Institute, is using computational methods to identify new candidate drugs to block HIV protease, a key molecular structure that when blocked, stops the virus from maturing and thus is a way of avoiding the onset of AIDS and prolonging life.
Possible future projects will address global humanitarian issues, such as new and existing infectious disease research; genomic and disease research; and natural disasters and hunger.

WritersToYou.com is asking that members and visitors who join World Community Grid become a member of the WritersToYou.com team. They will earn points as part of the team and as an individual.
