Thanks, this is great - it's actually pretty short for what is a huge subject! We started discussing it over here at ET a few weeks back, but none of us got around to actually go dig the various options (I'll go dig the links to these older diaries later).

Do you have a link for the GPI?

Re: Let's Ban the GDP (none / 1)

There does not seem to be a single good source for GPI on the web, though many sites have some discussion of it. This is the source I found most helpful, redefiningprogress.org.
