So until recently I had it set so that after 90 minutes the monitor just stopped showing a picture. And then...Electric Sheep (http://electricsheep.org/).


When the screen-saver is activated, the screen goes black and an animated 'sheep' appears. Behind the scenes, the screen-saver contacts a server and joins the parallel computation of new sheep. Every fifteen minutes 24/7 a new sheep is born and distributed to all clients for display. Each sheep is an animated fractal flame.

It's so cool I just keep walking into the computer room to look at it.
