A recent study of economic bloggers concluded that a Walker College blog has an impact in the blogosphere. Environmental Economics is maintained by Dr. John Whitehead, chairman of the Department of Economics. He primarily blogs about environmental issues from an economic perspective.
According to Blogometrics, “There are some interesting economics blogs among the second tier of the top portion ranked in Table 2. For instance, a blog devoted to the economics of the environment — Environmental Economics — comes in at 17th.”
That is 17th among “top economics blogs by scholarly impact of contributors.” Also, the report ranks the blog 22nd among “top economics bloggers by scholarly impact.”
While there are some flaws in "Blogometrics," I'm not going to refuse to repost some good local publicity!
Note: the flaws are it contains only a small sample of economics blogs (moving ours up the rankings) and it doesn't count Tim's citations, which are greater than mine (moving our blog down the rankings).
