A long break in posting

Posted by yp on August 29, 2006

School has started a week ago. ’nuff said.  Just a run-down on other academic blogger sites.

  • A Gentleman’s C complains about grouchy professors.
  • RateYourStudents discusses the inevitable in academia: return to the classroom and blogging.
  • Financial rounds has some interesting posts, one about trading options around take-overs, courtesy of Wall Street Journal, and the joys of academic research. I am more than happy to work with you using that database — man, 200 companies with corporate governance info; I call that Bearls and Means heaven.
  • Brad DeLong has an interesting classroom related post on economic growth.  What is really cool, though, is the use of Google’s GapMinder application.  Wow, that’s a cool way to make statistics palatable.

That’s all for today.
