They want to sell access to the data. I don’t see easy linking and data sales as mutually exclusive, but Tradesports’ current practice doesn’t help it win bigger opportunities (becoming the dominant PM exchange).

I am not. Microsoft is, more than it is not, just another company. I do think that the run of open source writ large has only begun. I'd rather not be thought of as a propagandist for open source or anything else, but ah well. If I had a problem with Hanson taking money from any source, it would be the US government.

Masse Sat, 18 Jun 2005 11:59:51 +0000 http://gondwanaland.com/mlog/?p=128#comment-3077 Hello San Francisco, The readers of this mind-shaking blog might be interesting in reading my last piece that links to this particular blog entry. In a nutshell, I'm outing myself as a Microsoft-hater, and I'm unveiling that professor Robin Hanson received money from them ---a scoop worth the Pulitzer prize, no doubt. So, I'm asking Mike Linksvayer: What do you, the open source software propagandist, make of this? My sadistic pleasure would be that Mike comes up saying that it's no big deal ---and of course I will immediately fight back, painting him as being a Robin Hanson-lapdog. Let's see whether Mike Linksvayer deserves his reputation as a debunker. (I'm trembling, hoping that he does not debunk... me!) Best regards, Chris. F. Masse P.S.: Hey, I also have a piece out that will make ripples in the blogosphere because Barry Ritholtz will blog back at me today. How the 2004 U.S. political prediction markets outsmarted a Wall Street pundit, an esteemed economics professor and the commentariat as a whole! http://www.chrisfmasse.com/2/2005/20050618.html P.P.S.: The other piece about the papacy futures markets that I promised here has been postponed. Soon. It will be a bombshell. (It will also have a link back to this particular blog entry because of Mike's comments about the InTrade URLs.) How the BBC and Co. went overboard claiming that the prediction markets had foreseen the name of the new pope. Hello San Francisco,
