  At http://www.plomus.dk/linux/world.html you are able to have a look into the future. You see how Linux will control the world in 2002.
Linus Torvalds
has his own homepage at http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/%7Etorvalds/,
where he presents himself and his daughter (nickname: Linus v2.0). Additional
he generously offers his telephone number, e-mail- and snail-mail-address.
Now every linux user knows where he should send a present or at least a
post card at christmas. But do not spam his mail box with support-questions
about linux. He has better things to do.
Who believes in the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence is able to help searching. The Seti-Institut, that records radio waves coming out of the never-ending universe, wants to use the united force of the internet to analyze the signals. The institute does not have the necessary computer power to analyze all data and they are searching for interested users. The name of the project is Seti@Home. The algorithm is included in a screen saver and only runs if you do not use your PC. As a gratitude you get information about the analyzed data e.g. from where in the sky it was recorded and more. Via internet the result will be transmitted back to the server. You are able to download the program from Seti@Home. But the Linux-version has no screensaver included, it is just a console program.
