I just watch this interesting video and thought I'd share it with you guys, W.C.G. was mentioned @10:53 :toast:

Keep on crunching my friends!

100 years of IBM.

sorry if this is the wrong sub-forum, but I had to express it somewhere!

Thanks bro, :toast:

Don't think mods will mind that here since it does relate to WCG in some way.

Here's the summary.

Summary
World Community Grid is set to receive fifty percent of the winnings from the Jeopardy! competition between IBM's 'Watson' computing system and two past Jeopardy! champs.

It's the first ever man vs. machine Jeopardy! competition. IBM's 'Watson' computing system will be taking on two of the most celebrated Jeopardy! champions - Brad Rutter and Ken Jennings.

With IBM donating 100% of 'Watson's' winnings to charity, World Community Grid is very pleased to announce that it will receive 50% of those proceeds. The competition is set to air over three consecutive days - February 14, 15 & 16, 2011. Please check your local listings for channel and air times.
