One of the things about my Masonomics essay is that I did not mention a lot of Mason bloggers. Could you leave comments with your blogs? I want to publish a list, and I’d prefer not to miss any.
I want to include any Masonomists (students or faculty) who write for blogs, as long as the blogs have at least some occasional economic content.

I've long been skeptical of Chinese growth numbers. I don't doubt that China's economy is growing rapidly, but year after year of 10% growth seems incredible. In addition to the generic argument for doubting extreme numbers, we have the long history of Communist regimes falsifying their numbers, and Western observers...

A 2-1/2 minute video lesson, from Milton Friedman. It is based on the story I, Pencil, by Leonard Read. Thanks to Don Boudreaux for the pointer.

As a Ph.D. Econ student, I was one of the first Mason-affiliated folks to blog, though I’ve since stopped blogging almost entirely.

I’m currently enrolled in Econ classes, and am applying for the Masters program–but I’m not in yet, so I’m not sure that I count.
But my blog has a great deal of posts on economics, and I’ll often republish the papers I wrote for my classes there.

I’m a Mason grad, but now I’m trying to get into grad school, so I guess I’ll throw this out. I blog very rarely at http://soundsfamiliar.blogspot.com/

I am a current undergraduate and although I have my own blog I wanted to put the link towards http://gmueconsociety.blogspot.com The blog is open for any Mason student to submit material to be blogged and also has news on future events or updated news about the society.
Although the officers are undergraduate students, the events are open to anyone as well as sending us posts to put up on the blog.
