Newly added econ blogs
I finally had a chance to clear the backlog of new blogs to add to my econ blogs directory. The latest additions are:
DataPoints: The Dismal Scientist Blog
PM to Minister: u r fired
Well I knew that New Zealanders love to send text messages by mobile phone, but this article about Prime Minister Helen Clark’s use of texting made me smile:
She has three mobile phone devices and has described herself as the “mistress of text” because of her frequent use of the medium to contact, cajole, corral or commend her ministers.
Corrections Minister Damien O’Connor recognised her acceptance of the medium by offering via text message to resign after his ill-judgment over the parliamentary rugby team.
New unranked economics blogs
I’ve been a bit busy and have a backlog of new economics blogs to add to my directory. I hope to add them tomorrow. In the meantime, here’s some new economics blogs which will not be in the directory because they’re not currently indexed by Technorati. If the respective blog owners could fix that, I’d be happy to include them.
Supply and Demand: by Casey B. Mulligan
Economix: The Economy and the Economics of Everyday Life: A new ‘economics for the masses’ blog by the NY Times.
The Growth Blog: A blog by the Commission on Growth and Development.
Sucks to be an economist right now
Every random person I meet wants to know my opinion on the credit crisis and bailout.
