You must be psychic @cryptomancer :) I took the concept of badges from the World Community Grid that I also run on my PC - it runs projects that benefit humanity overall.

Nice! That looks like an interesting project, thanks for the link. Kind of reminds me of the old SETI@home initiative, a good way to do something useful with your spare CPU cycles.
I still do SETI from time to time and as well as Folding@Home and Enigma@Home - Total folding madness indeed! The original mining in my eyes ... and useful too :)
Indeed they are, feels good to be using spare computing power to make a positive contribution to society! Along those lines, you might consider looking into the VIVA economic system designed by @williambanks . It's still under construction but ultimately will allow people to do similar sorts of things with their computers (performing some useful computing task) and get paid a basic salary for it.
I will check out William's scheme @cryptomancer - many thanks :)
