Hey there DC'ers,
I was wondering if we could get the Welcome thread updated with all the latest DC projects. I'm sure we run more than just:
SETI
OGR
UD
Folding@Home
GENOME@Home
Distributed Folding

These projects come to mind, i'm sure there are a few others:
Find-a-Drug DC project
D2OL
ECC2
SoB

Maybe the various team leaders could get all the how to's, tips, stats pages, etc. together & add them to the thread.
We could all use some new members.

Welcome to the Distributed Computing Forum

Absolutely!

Notice the last line of the Welcome Thread.

Attention: Members of any Team AnandTech Club are welcomed to include their welcome message and a link to their club's website. Just PM Smokeball. ;)

guys, you need to make up a post like you would like to see it in the thread and then PM it to Smokeball so he can get it posted.

(he can't be expected to author all of em)

When you write up your intro to your project try to follow the outline of the other (projects) in the "Welcome Thread". It would be PC if the verbage was of approximately the same size as the other projects. ;)

The main thing would be to provide links to your projects website, the TeAm's Stats, and of course a link to how to join and get started. :)

D2OL was in the recruiting thread, why wasn't this information added to the welcome thread also?

Confused just sent me an email with a write-up for the "SB - Seventeen Or Bust" and it is now on the "Welcome" thread. :)

That's all it takes. ;)

Yep, sure did :) 10 mins writing it up (and a couple of links and facts copied/pasted from the homepage) and there's a nice little bit of blurb about Seventeen or Bust

Well, the whole idea of the welcome thread is so all the projects TA runs are in one place, without having to search for it.
