Flash mob Computing
New Scientist: Flash mob to attempt supercomputing feat:
On Saturday 3 April, over 1000 laptop owners will converge on the university gym in an attempt to build a "flash mob" supercomputer. The project's organisers hope that FlashMob will run fast enough to beat supercomputers in the list of the world's top 500 supercomputers.
...
Because nothing like FlashMob has ever been attempted, it is not clear how the project will fare.
