Depressing news now more widely available

The Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis (part of the US Federal Reserve), who run the excellent FRED economic data website, have now released a free iPhone/iPad app that lets you download depressing economic statistics and graphics wherever you are.

There probably aren’t many people in New Zealand who would want this, but I bet they are over-represented among our readers.
