  • According to Google Sitemap, the most frequently searched term that yields my web site is network effects, with a rank of between 6 and 8, probably on account of the overview of network effects deeper inside this site. If you check out my SSRN page, you'll see some of my research on the topic as well.

    I've been doing a lot of work on the economics of the long tail recently. You've probably seen a lot of long tail discussion in the press. Stay tuned: over the summer, I'll post our research results.
    I've also recently gotten interested in economining. What is economining? Well, right now, its a project at NYU that incorporates economic models and measures to improve text mining, and text mining to improve economic prediction. Why just text, though. I figure its going to be way more general than that, encompassing all of data mining that exploits or informs economic models and methods. Meanwhile, here's our economining project page.
