New website on careers for optimal philanthropy

80,000 hours (eightythousand.org) is a new website associated with High Impact Careers, a Giving What We Can-associated effort to inform the public about “professional philanthropy” and the fact that you can do more good as a banker or entrepreneur than as an aid worker. It recently got some BBC press, and there’s a neat new video.
