Distributed Proofreading

08 Nov 2002 @ 1:20 PM

Proving once again that /. is a potent source of change, the Distributed Proofreading project has completed 6169 pages so far today, compared to 6281 the previous 7 days. All thanks to one artcle on Slashdot. Coolio.

Now I’ve got something to do at work…

Update: As of Tuesday morning, they’re up to 52000+ pages complete this month, compared to the goal of 33000, and they’re sustaining about 10,000 pages per day since the Slashdot and Kuro5hin stories were posted. What a great public work using spare time. Love computers.
