I'm adding this for the uplifting sense that computers give us all. Personally, I think we'd all be a lot better if nobody had computers, but yet I can't seem to stay away from mine. For most, it is Facebook and E-mail that run their lives, and that pisses me off like no other. Furthermore, I figured I would share a program that I have had to work with lately for my Grad class. It is called Webmo.
Webmo is an online program that allows one to build and model molecules/atoms/etc. with a server on a different computer. Its just a remote way to use this other machine so the school can lock it away and nobody actually knows where it is. Not only that, but when used in conjunction with a shitty processor, it's more of a pain in the ass than an awesome engineering tool. Don't let me fool you though, there are many sweet things this program can do. Mostly, it helps turn lab rats in chem labs to lab rats in computer labs.
Seriously though, Webmo is pretty sweet. It allows you to do such things as finding optimum geometries for Benzene:
Develop IR Spectra:
So whether it may be frustrating or not, Webmo offers some sweet stuff that my imagination cannot (like comparing nuts via the web rather than in person).
