Have you heard about Boinc?
It let's you donate your free computer power to Science programs, like seti@home, rosetta@home, milkyway@home, cosmology@home etc.
You can join teams and view statistics about how much you've donated, we could make a Universe Sandbox community team (perhaps with another name) if you're interested in Boinc.

I run uFluids, PrimeGrid, climateprediction, and... Umm... That's it. I deleted some because I don't know. Used to have MilkyWay, Einstien, and SETI.

I was going to start this topic, but searched for it first and found this. Maybe you can describe a little more how to join etc. in the OP, so hopefully more people will join!

And also, please join my team: SAGAN! It's short for Science Appreciation Group for AFK Nerds!
We got a blog here, but we don't update it too often:

If you want to join the team and write blogposts about science etc. send me a PM!

Maybe I should join again. I closed all Boinc projects on my com... More than a year ago, I think. I don't even have it installed anymore.

But, for Science!

Same here, but I probably won't start back up. I don't have as much processing power I can use up.

Bah, you can do it. Maybe make a Universe Sandbox team as well! :D
(I will still be on SAGAN though)
