Fly-By Posting
The absence of posts this week has been the result of way too much travel. Here, live from Heathrow (again), is a quick list of things that look interesting but I haven’t had time to read yet:
- At EU Policy Blog Steven Stoft explains how to deal with OPEC
- At Knowledge Problem Lynne Kiesling finds something to like in the New York Times
- And also from Lynne a video of Severin Borenstein talking about real time pricing
Around the Web – Knowledge Problem
Knowledge Problem is a general economics blog run by Lynne Keisling of Northwestern University assisted by Michael Giberson. Many of the posts are about energy issues. Yesterday Lynne took Rebecca Smith of the Wall Street Journal to task for yet another one of those articles that looks at a market that is having problems (in this case Texas) and claims that all of those problems are caused by deregulation.
Around the Web: The Energy Legal Blog
With most people still recovering from the holiday weekend, it is perhaps a good time to take another look around the Internet. Today’s feature site is the Energy Legal Blog, run by the energy practice of law firm, Bracewell & Giuliani. Most of the material on the site is US-related, but the company does have a presence in other countries as well. There are RSS feeds, so it is easy to follow the stories that they publish.
USAEE Working Papers Found
The kind folks at SSRN have written to explain how to find the USAEE Working Papers series. And lo, there are 138 of them! You can find the full list here. Currently there is no means of being notified when a new paper is posted, but we’ll keep an eye on the site and mention anything new here.
USAEE Working Paper Series
An email from the USAEE states that they are starting a working papers series. The papers will be stored on the Social Science Research Network web site. There doesn’t appear to be anything there at the moment, but perhaps that is because no one has submitted any papers. We’ll keep an eye on it.
Around the Web: EU Energy Policy Blog
Inevitably there will be days when no earthshaking story comes across our desks. Our plan is to fill at least some of those days with brief reviews of others places around the Internet where discussion of energy economics issues can be found. We would like to start with the EU Energy Policy Blog.
