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.

… is that they don’t do cool shit like this!. Milk the cash cows and move on is the Microsoft way. Seriously, this is the neatest thing I’ve seen from Apple in about a year. Little wireless hub for my stereo system. Gotta love it!
