- The BetFair Promo site guides you visually thru the latest site changes.
- And this is some blablating about the changes.
—
OK, I got it now.
- The main site www.betfair.com is for orientation, only.
- The speculators will go directly to sports.betfair.com. Naming this sub-website “sports” is the dumbest idea since the New Coke. When I’m on the US presidential election prediction market (Winning Party), it has nothing to do with “sports”. A better idea would have been to name it “markets”, or else.
- The forum goes by forum.betfair.com. There are no permanent URLs available anymore for individual forum entries. I don’t know what the BetFair webmaster was thinking of —it breaks all Internet usability rules.
- Everything else fits into the extras.betfair.com —and God knows that’s a lot. (Fuck, my FireFox is instructed to open any new page in a new tab, as opposed to a new window, and when I click on the links on the “extras” page, FireFox opens a new window. NO, NO, NO.)
- Psstt… If you have two minutes, take a look at the BetFair Advantage Tool. Sounds like it is a horse racing prediction markets analysis software —no idea whether it’s an order-entry software, too (like 1st Tick and Saikou Trader).
