If you are used to reading the "Yesterday's Money" column you will notice it has changed since yesterday. Here at Massively we have a different remit to Second Life Insider, and so we are starting to bring you indicators of key metrics from a variety of MMOs and Virtual Worlds.
If you would like to suggest other worlds and the metrics we can use for them, AND their sources so we can harvest and present the data, we would love to hear from you. We can't present all the data on every item and material, nor should we, we aim to present indicators of the economy, not the in-depth costings you will find in each server or each station for each item. Indeed, such information is already available via the sites we link to.
You should notice that for the commodities we are presenting average prices. You will almost certainly NOT find these prices exactly anywhere, but you will get an indication of if it is a bad deal or a good one you are being offered.
