Galaxy Zoo

Has anybody signed on to work with Galaxy Zoo (http://www.galaxyzoo.org/)?  I'm just interested in knowing your experiences with it.  I heard about it on NPR's Science Friday about a Danish woman discovering a new astronomical anomaly which was named after her.

I've heard about it and the woman you're speaking of... I have no personal experience with the project though, although I do think it's great that it is increasing general interest in science.

Hi All,I have been on galaxy

Hi All,

I have been on galaxy zoo and its fun. And a bit addictive.

Also, unless there was an other discovery by a woman I don't know about, she was Dutch. (sorry, a bit of irrational national pride on my side)

See link.
