Gamers Unlock Protein Mystery that Baffled AIDS Researchers for Years
Basically, the University of Washington has a website, www.fold.it, where you can play competetive puzzle games, that aren't exactly games at all - you're figuring out protein structures, electron density, and actually helping science at the same time. I'm not even going to download the program until after midterms, since it seems like it could be an addictive time suck, but damn, that's cool.
