In October 2007, Google announced that it was partnering with IBM to provide largescale cluster computing resources to undergraduate computer science students along with a creative commons licensed curriculum. Using the cluster and curriculum as a starting point, students have been able to develop some compelling projects.

Jul 26, 2008 - Obama is the Antichrist.

bapyou Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Obama is the Antichrist? That's a new one. What evidence do you have to back up your assertion? Any text messages from Beezlebub on his PDA? Give us the skinny, won't you? Unless, of course, you just hate niggers and Democrats. Then your characterization of Mr. Obama would be totally understandable. Waiting breathlessly for your reply. Cheers!

Jul 26, 2008 - Is there a way to move forward and offer these types of infrastructure/know-how to public institutions? I'm a graduate student at SFSU interested about Data Grid, Grid Computing, but I feel we don't have such availability and organization around a program like yours...Cloud Computing Baby!
