Idea: Removing a large amount of info from the index page! about gridcoin-site

[jimbo-slice]

Now that you mention it, it does seem like pointless clutter. There is some good information here, but it's mostly redundant and some aren't really useful. Here are my thoughts section by section:

1. POS/POB/DPOR/Voting - All of this is already explained higher up on the page.

2. Whitelist - We could remove this and mention/link the white-list within our opening section, perhaps somewhere within this paragraph:

Gridcoin securely rewards volunteer distributed computing performed upon the BOINC platform in a decentralized manner on top of proof of stake. Projects range from attempting to cure diseases to searching for extraterrestrial life! You can distribute virtually any kind of distributed computing process through BOINC (utilizing GPU/CPU/Sensors/etc).

3. Help Advance Science - The benefits of BOINC/GRC are already mentioned in our opening paragraphs.

4. Types of BOINC Projects: This data is already specified on our white-list page.

5. Potential BOINC tech - As you said, this is speculative and doesn't provide meaningful information.

In my current fork, I have entirely removed the feature and boinc sections from the index page.

Should we replace the world graphic with something else? Reference:

I feel like the 'what is gridcoin' section is lacking without an image beside it, thoughts?

The section about Gridcoin needs to include some of the info which was removed (grc features & boinc info).

What about moving the centered logo to the left, and then moving the 'what is gridcoin' section up into the purple header, to the right of the logo?

I tried this out, it didn't look amazing to be honest.
