foldit is an experimental video game about protein folding, developed as a collaboration between the university of washington's departments of computer science and engineering and biochemistry (many of the same people who created rosetta@home). the first public beta was released in may 2008. foldit follows the gameswithapurpose paradigm in which players, as a side effect of playing, help solve problems that computers cannot solve very well. an earlier example of this paradigm is the esp game (aka the google image labeler).
