I'm busy with all kinds of things, not much time to update this blog. Should I shut it down? How many of you guys actually read this? Leave a comment below! I'll continue writing if the response is enthusiastic enough.
Here are links to some of my latest stories, by the way:
Die Zeit just published my story on three-year-old US kids learning Chinese. Rich New Yorkers want their children to have an edge when China dominates the world, which probably will happen by the time they have grown up.
For profil I did a story about Hillary Clinton's and Barack Obama's fight over Harlem. Until now Hillary could take the African-American vote for granted thanks to the popularity of her husband Bill among blacks. (Some people call Bill Clinton "the first black US president".) But now Obama is making inroads: Download p10_090_USA.pdf
America is turning green. Read my profil story: Download p06_066_usa.pdf
For Red Bull's Red Bulletin I wrote a story about crazy Bode Miller: Download red_bulletin_kitzbuhel_samstag_27. Jänner 2007.pdf
I'm off to Costa Rica in a few hours - volcanoes, beaches, holidays! Will be back in ten days.
Seb, I'm a friend of Christoph's from Sydney. Read your blog and articles when I can, good stuff. Cheers!

Ich lese dein Blog auch sehr gerne, bitte mach weiter! Erstens krieg ich so einen Hauch NYC mit, und zweitens brauche ich Blogs, um mich vom Arbeiten abzuhalten. Liebe Grüße aus Warschau!

great; I'd love to read more inside information on your work; sitting here in salzburg finishing my diploma thesis is quite boring; by the way, I'd love to make a blog collecting stories by german correspondents aside daily news, maybe something like ard's weltspiegel but by blog; however I don't know if that is possible; I guess you'll try to sell the good stuff to magazines ;-) if you're interested and know some other people, let me know; otherwise, keep on writing; ps: i like your writing style

No one knows what it means, but it's provocative ... It gets the people going!

Würde mich freuen wenn du weiterschreibst. Ich find's interessant die persönliche/intellektuelle Entwicklung anderer Ökonomen zu beobachten.
LG,

oh yeah - don´t worry about comments too much, there are so many blogs out there nowadays and they are all fishing for attention (i know what i´m talking about;-)
my wish for this blog: more personal reflection, dude!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Non chiudere il blog!I was thinking about it today...Voglio scrivere una mail ai miei amici di milano e altri e volevo anche inserire il link del tuo blog cosi' almeno possono vedere cosa fa un gironalista di vienna a New York quando non e' occupato con la morosa!!! Ma poi mi sono ricordata della foto...forse quella andrebbe cambiata, e poi ti meravigli se tutti i gay di New York ci provano!
