We had our November Conference in Cambridge today and it seemed to go really well. Thanks to everyone for making the journey - delegates came from far and wide including Kevin from New Zealand, Vasilis from Cyprus (winner of the highly sought after EMU!) and Paul from Hong Kong.

Thanks too to Jen and Chris from the RGS Colchester for leading us through some great trading games and transmitting so much of their passion for experinomics and how it can be used to engage students and explore ideas in both micro and macro contexts. I will blog shortly to some of the resources from their presentation.

Blogger Bryn gave two expert sessions on the basics of blogging and podcasting. If you do set up an economics blog after getting so much super advice, please let us know! Bryn’s blog is available here.
