Happy New Year to All.

We intend to soon offer on a trial basis certain historical market
data free of charge as part of an initiative to improve the
accessibility, transparency, and validation of prediction markets.

We hope in the near future that by making certain historical market
data freely available (and foregoing a revenue stream) we will
encourage further academic and business study and support of the
prediction market phenomenon.

We will present data by category, event, market group, and individual
market. No personal data will be made available. The initial reports
that we will provide are closing prices and time and sales of each
trade on a market. The data sets will be in a CSV format and will be
refreshed daily.

We are looking for a limited number of people to Beta test our
application and market data sets. Please contact us on
da...@intrade.com if you are interested in being a tester and getting
access (T&C's will apply) to historical market data.

Best regards,

John

hi John, it's Bob Pulver...I think we've connected on LinkedIn and via
email before (work email = bobp...@us.ibm.com).

I'm very interested in your historical market data, since I'm still
pursuing IBM investment in prediction markets...obviously the business
case is stronger with tangible, quantitative data.

Please let me know when you might be available to discuss this as well
as your beta testing.

Thanks very much and happy new year.

Regards,

Bob Pulver

Hi John, Bob got the correct John, the Éire John. If not already, I'm
confident Hibernia John will attend to Bob in short order, if not already.
Thanks John, John
