Grid Computing Coming Of Age
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/07/16/016221

[0]ravenousbugblatter writes "The New York Times online has an article
    discussing [1]grid computing and recent advances made by [2]Dr. Ian     Foster, among others. The article compares the state of grid computing     over the internet to where the internet was in 1994, which was soon     after the development of the software for the use of URL's, HTML, and     HTTP. Predictions are made in the article that in the near future the     massive power of grid computing will be available to anyone with an     internet connection, not just to big companies that can afford to hire
[3]HP and [4]Sun to run a grid project for them."
