A new blog on InTrade’s prediction markets: Prediction (Market) Insights
Prediction (Market) Insights… by Anonymous
Best wishes to him/her. I hope that he/she will reveal his/her ID in the future. “Wiser Than The Crowd” is the wrong role model in that regard, triple alas.

- His blog is on with a new webhost, and is probably not powered by TypePad anymore —I highly suspect WordPress. – (He should have chosen WordPress from day one, instead of listening sheepishly to his GMU acolyte. [...]
You Bet: a bad book about BetFair
