Long Bets [ About Long Bets ]
by cyantist at 3:41 am EST, Dec 8, 2002

Anyone interested in making a 150 year bet? Any bets that you actually might be alive then to see it happen?

Cyan waves hands over table and whispers, "No more bets" and spins the roulette wheel.

Longbets is:

*an arena for competitive, accountable predictions
*a forum for focussed discussion and debate about prediction.
*an attractive tool for philanthropic giving.
*a way to foster better long-term thinking.

The Long Bets Foundation was started in 02001 as a
501(c)(3) public education nonprofit foundation, based in California. It is a partial spin-off from The Long Now Foundation, which is building a 10,000-year Clock and tools for a 10,000-year Library.
