help us get the word out on the Internet

Here are 3 sites which will help bring more visitors to the World Community Grid Site

Basically on all 3 you just have to recommend the site http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org and users of these 3 services will get the world community grid page placed before them

The number of times the WCG appears is down to the number of referals that the site gets - now there are 200,000+ of us. If we all did our bit wink

No 1 is http://www.stumbleupon.com/ which can also be installed as a firefox addin

No 2 is http://www.digg.com/

No 3 is http://del.icio.us/

Give 'em a whirl and help raise the profile. We need your help to get as many WU's as possible crunched.

Thanks
Dave

Re: help us get the word out on the Internet

Put all the tags you can think of Lawrence

HIV AID's Cancer Research are good for starters Grid Computing even SETI@home so we appear on the same page as SETI maybe we could persuade a few that sorting out some problems closer to home is a good idea too. Try thinking like someone entering search items into Google that should bring them to the WCG for the answer. Then try thinking outside of that to think of any vague connection whatsoever that could hook them in. You have to be as crafty as possible in creating tags - it's a new art form

HIV AID's Cancer Malaria Research Medical Distributed Grid Computing Spare CPU Cycles AMD Intel SETI SETI@home DNA Cells Community World Cures Treatments Human Proteome Folding Protein Proteins Help Defeat @Home Institute Systems Biology Scripps New Jersey Rutgers University UMDNJ Robert Wood Johnson School New York University's Department Computer Science NCFR Humanitarian World's fastest Supercomputer MFlops GFlops TFlops Task Manager Idle Time HDC HPF HPF2 FAAH WCG UD IBM BOINC United Devices Berkeley Open Infrastructure Network Volunteer Donated Donations tissue microarrays TMA diagnosis analysis

Those should be enough to be going along with but I'm sure there are plenty more combinations however obtuse

Re: help us get the word out on the Internet

Hello =PiA=,
The World Community Grid is not beta. We run several different projects at a time.

Re: help us get the word out on the Internet

Hi =PiA=

No it's no beta it's here to stay come what may

Just hoping that we can have officially sanctioned IBM logo's by the weekend if not we are going to hold a banners, logos, buttons competition starting on Saturday so there will just more options to choose from so that you can choose one that will fit just right on your webpage.

The code will improve over the coming weeks with posts in last hour day week and stuff but don't worry you won't have to edit any code to make any of the new features work

Thanks for your support btw you are rapidly catching up with me

This project needs some marketing

Dave
