Technorati rankings are back in business and I’ve recently added these blogs to my directory:

Geary Behaviour Centre: the blog of the Centre for Behaviour and Health at the UCD Geary Institute.

Rigotnomics: a blog by ‘wannabe economists’ (their words, not mine) of the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies in Geneva.

Game Theorist: musings on economics and child rearing by Josh Gans (an old blog that I’d somehow overlooked till recently).

Also not currently listed on Technorati are two other econ blogs I was alerted to by faithful reader Steve Balassi:

SBVOR: An anonymous macroeconomics blogger, with lots of charts.

Hawkonomics: Another anonymous blogger, from the University of Iowa.

Technorati is down (again) which is preventing me from updating econ blog rankings or adding new blogs.

I’ve heard rumours that Technorati are abandoning their blog rankings and this may be an early indication of that. They do not publish rankings on their own website at the moment, but (until now) they’ve still been available to web developers. Also ominously, Technorati’s information for developers has not been updated in a very long time.

So it looks like I may no longer be able to use Technorati to rank blogs. Any other suggestions?

Technorati has fixed its problems — rankings are being updated daily again.

Technorati is currently experiencing technical difficulties which is preventing me from updating the ranking of econ blogs in my directory. The rankings are currently frozen, but I’ll start updating them as soon as Technorati fixes whatever problems it’s having.

The latest additions to my econ blog directory:

GMU Econ Society: Official blog of the George Mason University economics society.

InvestorCentric: The news and information that matters to real estate, small business and alternative investors, by NuWire investor services.

Macedonomics: A Macedonian view on economics by Tomislav Najdovski, a freshman in economics at UKIM.

Market Urbanism: Urban economics, zoning, transportation, and real estate from a free-market perspective

There’s also Growthology, the new blog about entrepreneurial economics by Tim Kane and Bob Litan which is not yet indexed by Technorati, so doesn’t appear in my directory at the moment.
