There’s plenty being said about the economy in blogs these days, so my next project is to start providing links to ones that bring some good insight and data to the discussion. I’ll start putting some of my favorites on the side, but I wanted to check with you to find out what’s been a good read. Here are some examples I’ve found.
Locally, Ken Oplinger has started an interesting blog for the Bellingham/Whatcom Chamber of Commerce & Industry. It has some interesting insights not just about the local economy, but government’s role in it. Click here
One blog that has an interesting stuff (and graphs that should put a scare into many Americans) is called Calculated Risk. Click here
Former Bellingham Herald reporter Aubrey Cohen continues to put together an interesting blog for the Seattle P-I about that city’s real estate. Click here.
What other business-related blogs have you found interesting?
