Ok, so this might not help find cure for cancer or map the human genome, but it's still cool. :)

There is a site called Project Dolphin, at: http://www.project-dolphin.net/ .
Basically, you download a small agent to your computer that runs in the background and counts the number of keystrokes you make. It sends that number to their main server hourly / daily / when you want to, and your account is updated with the new keystrokes.

I have formed a vBulletin team, so users can sign up and join the team, and the accumulated keystrokes of all members is that team's score.

The team page:
http://project-dolphin.net/cgi-bin/browse.cgi?mode=team-look&step=look-this-team&TeamID=1290

To join the team, you first need to sign up for the program:
http://project-dolphin.net/sign_up.shtml
Once you have activated the account, download the Pulse program:
http://project-dolphin.net/pulse_download.shtml
And finally, go to your account:
http://project-dolphin.net/members.shtml
Click Join a Team, enter "vBulletin" in the Search String and press Name. On the next page click the team's name, and join it (no password is needed).

Together we will become the number one team ever! :)

Looks like the project is being scrapped. Read this today when I went to look @ my stats. Says a re-release on a new server is possible, but with the addition of not holding one's breath...

Well, let's hope somethin' else similar comes up... we can always sign up a team on Project RC5 (http://www.distributed.net/rc5/index.html.en), heh.
