understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.

Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.

My previous job was as an inhouse packaging account manager for a large food service company and I had a permanent desk at their large open plan offices. One day I was tasked with finding some fancy dress products for a promo they were planning. So I typed into Google "themed party" my desk was by some double doors and just as I finished typing two people walked in and one said to the other "you should have a themed party", that's weird I thought. So I then typed in green pens, I soon as I stopped typing someone walked through the door and asked me for a green pen. "Ok, lunchtime" I thought : )
