This month I officially launched the EA Donation Registry, which you may have seen featured in MIRI's latest newsletter, or across the Animal Charity Evaluators website. Related, we also officially launched Effective Altruist Profiles (here's the LessWrong post) - we'd soft-launched both projects a while ago, soon after starting the 2014 EA Survey.
I also created a step-by-step guide to writing a will and the 'Shop for Charity' scheme, through which you can earn 5% cost-free commission for GiveWell-recommended charities while doing your shopping on Amazon. And I've been doing other Charity Science work too - people may be interested in our recent review of our first year of operations.
Shop for Charity
Link noted, future purchases at Amazon will be done through the respective link. Would be happier if the donation went outright to the GiveWell clear fund instead of any one of their recommended charities.
Your job, should you choose to accept it, is to comment on this thread explaining the most awesome thing you've done this month. You may be as blatantly proud of yourself as you feel. You may unabashedly consider yourself the coolest freaking person ever because of that awesome thing you're dying to tell everyone about. This is the place to do just that.
Remember, however, that this isn't any kind of progress thread. Nor is it any kind of proposal thread. This thread is solely for people to talk about the awesome things they have done. Not "will do". Not "are working on". Have already done. This is to cultivate an environment of object level productivity rather than meta-productivity methods.
So, what's the coolest thing you've done this month?
