Distributed computing - or Grid Technology

I don't get it. There's already SETI@Home (with their generic Boinc system), Folding@Home and Distributed.net. Now there's World Community Grid too.

Why don't they all share their resources instead of reinventing the wheel? Especially World Community Grid, which seems to be a generic distributed computing system similar to Boinc. Which one should I spend my unused CPU power on, if anyone?

Update: Appearantly, World Community Grid and Grid.org are using the same system, developed by United Devices. I'm having trouble understanding the difference between WCG and Grid.org. Maybe someone could tell me which one of the clients (which share the same Human Proteome Folding project) I should use, and why there are two versions?

World Community Grid is using the same generic "Grid MP" system that United Devices (grid.org) is using. And UD's system was developed in part by some of the staff of distributed.net

Everyone should just use BOINC... :-P

Why is there more than one browser? Why is there more than on supermarket chain?
Because people believe they can do a better or different job to the existing software or services, or they think they can make money.

You should, of course, join the MozillaZine Folding@ Home team. See our AD thread.
