Is there any good introductory "this is the CEA and it's made up of THESE AWESOME ORGANIZATIONS" page that I could link to on Facebook and such? http://www.centreforeffectivealtruism.org/ is rather dry, and requires clicking on links in order to properly find out what the organizations are all about.

In general CEA isn't meant to be public facing.

But those organizations are, and I want a good page that introduces all of them at once (and maybe some others, like GiveWell) that I can link to people who are interested in effective altruism.

Effective Altruism could use a good general landing page (similar to what Lukeprog's done for naturalism, X-risk, etc). If it doesn't already exist by January I might consider doing it.

In the meantime, the About Page of THINK makes an effort to introduce the EA community and many of its organizations. Obviously it's also a billboard for THINK itself, but I'm not sure if there's a better summary of the movement right now.

At the moment the best thing to do would be to link to each of the organisations' websites individually.
