My personal background
Sucked into distributed computing by Einstein@Home, I now find myself addicted to BOINC. Although I will forever be a gravitysmith, my project list has grown to include other worthy causes.

I would like to think of myself as yet another anonymous "smith" in the world ... doing what I can to advance our understanding of the world. In my own little circles, I am known for many things, but my greatest fame has come from a simple question: Do you know the best way to tie your shoes?



Opinion about BOINCstats/BAM!
BOINCstats is a nice place to get the lowdown on all the projects and the latest information. I do wonder how Willy will be able to keep up with the ever increasing number of projects though. With minimal cost of entry to become a BOINC project, the demand on stats sites will likely grow without bounds. Can donations and ads keep BOINCstats alive? I guess only time will tell. I bet Willy could make a small fortune (or at least enough to run the server) by selling project milestone certificates.
