smile Slashdot Users

Check the story about the Grid on /.
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/12/30/2...1&tid=136&tid=137

The group has 600+ registered users (up from 79 in less than 60 mins after the story was published).

/. rocks!!

cool Re: Slashdot Users

Members of a team are "Current". I am sure it is not quite realtime, but it is the only thing on the Stat page that seems to update almost instantly. Everything else is batch-processed and put out over Akamai. 1144 members when I checked a minute ago! [Grin]

Re: Slashdot Users

Just checked their current status

The group now has 1591 members, up from 79 yesterday and growing, by far the biggest team on the World Community Grid

It will be interesting to watch how quickly they progress through the ranks to #1 overall

Just a bit of speculation

If 1500 members running 24/7 average 600 points per day, they will generate 900,000 points per day and will have exceededed IBMs 5.7 million points in the next 5 days

Thats assuming they attract no more members
If they keep growing at that rate it could be sooner

Just something to observe for a bit of fun

This is 1 thread to keep your eye on
