At Extro-4 a few people were wondering what became of the Idea Futures project that was presented at Extro-2. The software we developed eventually became the Foresight Exchange (FX), located at http://www.ideosphere.com. I've written an article about our experiences with it that was published in Extropy Online, available at http://www.extropy.org/eo/articles/fx.htm

Our plans for commercializing the software didn't come to fruition as we'd hoped, but some of us are once again considering making a serious go of it. Besides the FX site, the software has been used in trials in industry and academia and powered the IF market that the Foresight Institute ran at a recent senior associates' gathering.
