The buddy list in their AIM accounts can also serve as their buddy list in their AIM Pages account. In the true Web 2.0 fashion they are mashing up multiple concepts together: Google Pages, Google Personalized Home Page and Friendster. Now, it makes me wonder by Google Big Brother has not made a move into this space yet? This is can potentially add a large amount of Google Adwords Advertising Space which they need. Or will they buy one of the unaffiliated MySpace clones? [...] […] This move by AOL makes sense since they have a pretty big AIM community to start with (particularly in the United States).

The project is Google Compute. Google Compute is a new feature of the Google Toolbar. The goal of Google Compute is to make a contribution to science by enabling Google Toolbar users to easily donate their idle computer time to worthwhile causes. The Google Compute version of the Google Toolbar detects when a computer is idle and puts it to work on complex mathematical problem from such fields as drug design and global climate modeling … The first beneficiary of this effort is Folding@home, a non-profit academic research project at Stanford University that is trying to understand the structure of proteins so they can develop better treatments for a number of illnesses.
