Christina Romer Says: Obama State of the Union Speech Should Focus on Deficit
By the End of This Year, the Great Recession Will Have Cost Us $3 Trillion (and It Will Have Cost the Rest of the World $5 Trillion)

Do I Perhaps Have too Many Electronic Gadgets?

Which of these should I take to Berkeley for the first day of the semester today:

  • iPhone (for communicating).
  • iPad (for taking notes during pointless bureaucratic meeting).
  • Four-year-old laptop with busted screen (to drive the projector in the lecture hall).
  • New laptop (to consult my notes while lecturing).
  • Livescribe Pulsepen (to make backup copy of lecture audio in case Webcast system punks out).

I must say that I am very tempted to take all of them. They only weigh twelve pounds all together...
