coondoggie brings us an scoop from Networkworld about a flood of new goods for the SETI@home project. We discussed something similar a few months ago when a new telescope array went live. The huge amount of processing capability mandatory to handle the new notes is prompting the SETI@home team to construct a plea for more volunteers. Quoting the press release: “What triggered the new flow of documents was the addition of seven new receivers at Arecibo, which
