1. The Ohlin model of international trade, put into a fifteen-minute computer game.  The pointer is from Tim Sullivan.

2. Natascha Kampusch update, fascinating on numerous counts and one of the best media pieces I have read this year.

3. The most popular classical music downloads on iTunes.

4. New betting markets: The Washington Stock Exchange.

It should be noted that the Washignton Stock Exchange doesn’t use real money or any close analogue. Therefore it’s predictive power is dubious.

Those who want a real information should stick with tradesports.
