We are very excited to announce today that Jimmy Wales, founder of Wikipedia, has joined Hunch’s board of directors. He’ll also be hanging out with us some in NYC, which I think could be great for the NYC startup ecosystem. Jimmy blogs about joining us here, and we have some Hunch milestone stats on the Hunch blog.
Business-wise, Jimmy is the perfect fit — we’ve always talked about Hunch aspiring to be “Wikipedia for decision-making.” Personally, it’s also really thrilling: I think of Wikipedia as an incredible and extremely significant human endeavor.

Congrats, however you'll no doubt get some shit from the likes of Mr. Calacanis (arch nemisis of Mr Wales) but he'll surely be an awesome addition to the board!
Holy crap Batman, that's pretty freaking awesome having Mr. Wikipedia on your board.
And to Jimmy-> fantastic pick for a board position. I keep getting smarter each time I use Hunch. I love the way it narrows in by asking me about motor bikes and dancing while I seek out the perfect Zen development framework

Congratulations, a great guy to have on board
