Tutor 2U Blog

There are many excellent economics blogs on the web now.

There's this one of course - but also the Tutor2U blog which is very useful for A-level economics students. You can visit it here:

You can also gain access to a wide selection of views here:

Amongst my own favourites are:

Dear Economist - Tim Harford is the rising star of TV Economics - check out his TV series, 'Trust Me, I'm An Economist'. He also wrote 'The Undercover Economist'

Freakonomics - Can now be found here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/FreakonomicsBlog

You need to take care when reading blogs and websites of course - even this one - because you are only dealing with one person or one group's opinion. A good economist should always ask themselves - 'What is the source of the information' and 'What are their objectives' - but bearing this in mind, you can have a lot of fun browsing through Economics blogs and learn a lot of useful stuff.
