Folding for Code Igniter

October 24th, 2006

function cure_cancer() { $this->load->folding('code_igniter'); }

I’ve started a folding team for Code Igniter, and put up a quick team page.

Folding@Home is a distributed computing project (similar to seti@home) to help find a cure for diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Mad Cow (BSE), CJD, ALS, Huntington’s, Parkinson’s disease, and many Cancers and cancer-related syndromes. People from through out the world download and run software to band together to make one of the largest supercomputers in the world. Every computer makes the project closer to our goals.

The neat thing for us as a community? As you “fold” proteins you get points (based on how much computational power went into figuring out that protein). If you are a member of a team, your points are also counted towards the teams. We can start our own folding team and try to bring attention to ourselves, and also work for a darn good cause!

Code Igniter is folding team 52026.
