Hi guys.
Just gauging a bit of interest.. A member of the NAS suggested to me that we (at IceInSpace) set up a
Seti @ Home IceInSpace team.
What's Seti @ Home?
Well, here's a blurb from the website:
Quote:

The SETI@home program is a special kind of screensaver. Like other screensavers it starts up when you leave your computer unattended, and it shuts down as soon as you return to work. What it does in the interim is unique. While you are getting coffee, or having lunch or sleeping, your computer will be helping the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence by analyzing data specially captured by the world's largest radio telescope.

What's an IceInSpace Team?
Basically I would start a "team" on the site, and members of the forum (or, anyone really) can join the IceInSpace team (quick and easy to do) to have a "collective" effort at this number crunching. It basically just groups your efforts to see how everyone is doing.
So, all it would mean is:
1. Create an account on the seti at home site
2. Join the IceInSpace team
3. Download (and use) the screensaver
That's it.
So, answer the poll to show your interest in getting this going.. I can take it or leave it, but if there's enough interest i'll set an IceInSpace team up.
