Recessionwire, in Theory and Practice

Congratulations to my former Portfolio.com colleagues Laura Rich and Sara Clemence for getting the great-looking Recessionwire up and running -- and for snagging some very valuable NYT real estate, as well. This is my favorite bit from the NYT article:

Promotional materials proclaim that "core users" will be urbanites in their 30s and early 40s with a "theoretical income level" of more than $75,000.

I like that. People don't have incomes any more, they have a "theoretical income level". What's yours?
