The Economist Starts Blogging

Nov 5, 2006

1 min read

Via Fleet Sreet 2.0 (which is a great name for an interesting blog), I note that The Economist has given us two blogs:

Free Exchange – an economics blog (no surprises there)
Democracy in America – which does what it says on the tin

The Bad: Register-to-comment. Boo.
