Blogger Responds to Economic Crisis?

The ariticle "Out of Work? Read a Recession Blog. Or, Better Yet, Write One" in NYT make fun out of the blog writers who have been making their words known to the broad audience via internet. As commented in the ariticle, the blogsphere has documented this economic crisis and the bloggers' background varies from economists, old ladies to people who lose jobs. Mankiw at Harvard responds to the ariticle by joking that it is because his blog was termed as "heavy on theory" that his sitemeter did not show any jump in numbers of visitors. See Mankiw's blog at
