Today, the Freakonomics Blog featured the simExchange in a post relating to discovering new games and learning through a prediction market. Freakonomics is the New York Times Bestseller that discusses a different angle of economics, posing the questions:

The book discusses “the hidden side of -- well everything.” You can read a summary of the book and the authors here.
