Today I saw something I see every day: electronic devices.
So what?
I noticed how few of them are being used at any given moment. Gaming consoles sitting on standby, cellphones charging throughout the night. DVRs, graphing calculators, and many others spend most of their time sitting idly by, instead of being used.
Create a system for electronics to spend their downtime doing cloud computing micro-processes, and you've harnessed a Goliath ant-hill of logic.
Does your iPhone dabble in protein folding on the weekends?
