Great book: Confessions of an Economic Hit Man

I just finished reading an excellent book called Confessions of an Econmonic Hit Man.  Quite amazing really. Tells about the machinations of american foreign aid, and how all foreign aid is not as benevolent as you might think. Also kind of hints at why there are so many Texas oil men and huge construction contractors represented in the government. A fascinating read. Recommended. Technorati Tags: book

What’s your house worth?

If you haven’t seen this, it’s kind of cool. Zillow is a web site that take an address – maybe your home address,  maybe your boss’s, maybe your arch enemy’s – and shows you a lot of information about the property, especially an estimate of it’s current market value and how it’s changed. Cool. Technorati Tags: cool, cooltool
