Actually, I lost track on how many high-profile professors of economics are blogging. In addition to the links on this blog, I know some others: Brad DeLong, Deirdre McCloskey, George Borjas.
Dani Rodrik asked the audience: "who is the economist you would most want to see blogging?" That was after Shanta Devarajan of the World Bank and Princeton's Paul Krugman join the club.
I haven't made my comment to the post, but I'd certainly agree with two names: MIT's Daron Acemoglu and NYU's Bill Easterly. Robert Barro would also be great.

Ah, McCloskey, the postmodern free-market quantitative rhetorical Episcopalian feminist Aristotelian woman who was once a man... Love her!
