Anna or Carl or Vassar: was Givewell one of the good guys or one of the bad guys?
One of the good guys. Givewell isn't a specific charity; it's a serious attempt to research and publicize means of effective giving, in the sense of figuring out how to get the most {lives saved / education / other specific goals} per dollar.
I'd be really interested to hear what the Less Wrong community thinks of this. Don't spoil it by reading the comments first.
