Wow. My dark horse prediction (or at least half of it) materialized. Congratulations to Paul Krugman for winning the Nobel Prize in economic science. Unbelievable.
Tyler, as always, gives a great roundup for the cliff notes of "why this guy won", as he does every year. He also notes Dixit's chances of winning fall a lot. They said the same thing when Buchanan won sans Tullock. Stolen from Cowen, here's a great article about Krugman by Dixit. I love the opener explanation of why he's such a good economist in the first couple of paragraphs.
But, I really like this essay, How I Work. Very personal and inspiring, especially to the young assistant professor beginning his or her career.
