Hiatus

Walker Economics Blog is currently on hiatus and will return better than ever at the beginning of the year.

Here is a link to where this blog was quoted in a C-Net article (scroll to the bottom of the page).

Also, here is a link to our page on a website called BlogShares that is a "fantasy stock market where weblogs are the companies." Ummmm......wow, that sounds like fun. I am pretty confident that the only thing more dorky that having an economics blog is trading "fantasy shares" in them.

Apparently, the assign a value to a blog and then you can buy shares in it, and it gains or loses value based on how many websites it links to and how many sites link to it. Right now, the Walker Economics Blog is valued at a whopping $1000 blogdollars...

yes, a fantasy stock market is dorky. it's like being into medieval history and walking around in an armor and going to conventions.

Btw, in Mannheim in Germany there is a bar called "The Broker's Inn" where prices of drinks rise and fall with demand and the menu is displayed on a big quote board above the bar.
