Just saw a great link on another guys Signature. If you have been wondering what Folding@Home really is, or how it works, this little animation does a great job of explaining it in and easy to understand way. I think it does a better job than the Stanford U website even.

Even if you have been Folding@home regularly, still watch this video, because it will give you a warm and fuzzy feeling for knowing that you are doing good for this world.

*Note: The vid. focuses on computers doing the Folding, but obviously your PS3 does the same thing, only 100s of times faster than a home computer. The good thing is, you don't have to own a PS3 to Fold, so if you're reading this at all, it means that you are ready to start saving lives today. Get it?*
