Think Geek has a funny feature on their site. They ask people to take a survey which contains the standard demographic info (for geeks… age, favorite OS, favorite computer activity, etc.). They also have an open text box that you can submit any comments to the site. Well, they have a place that you can view the responses. It’s pretty amusing what some people will write.

Newsweek’s Daniel Gross explains the Consumer Price Index (here’s the official BLS site) in a very simple video. I could do without the goofy sound effects, but it’s a good, 2 minute explanation of how the government tracks inflation.
Per David Simon’s Berkeley talk, though, the video doesn’t go into why this matters. Perhaps they’ll cover that in the next installment of the Economics 101 series.
