The site's FAQ describes its mission: "It offers comprehensive and timely economic data and analysis, at the metro, state, and national level by recognized economists. Our site is geared more towards small business owners and students; people who want to use economics but aren't economists themselves. We try to keep everything fairly non-technical and widely applicable. The site includes forecasts, demographic information, and thousands of economic statistics. For example, the site provides a quick summary of major economic releases along with an economist's perspective on its implications and a user-friendly, easy- to-read table of the most pertinent data from the release. Users would also find useful descriptions on the financial impact of the release, along with strengths and weaknesses, and tips on exactly how to better utilize the information. The Dismal Scientist also provides useful tools to filter and better comprehend economic, demographic, and socioeconomic information. We enable the reader to rank all 50 states and over 250 metro areas on more than 100 distinct categories. In addition to the rankings, readers can see scores of data on one specific region.

Functionality: You can choose from one of several categories of data, then choose one or more tables from that category and choose annual or quarterly, and finally choose one or more items from the tables. The results you obtain include a chart, an HTML table of the data, and an opportunity to ftp a copy of the raw data you have chosen.
Content: The data are presented in two historical series - Annual and Quarterly - from 1959 forward, and were obtained from the STAT-USA (BEA) WWW site. National income and product accounts (NIPA) show the value and composition of the Nation's output and the distribution of incomes generated in its production. The accounts include estimates of gross domestic product(GDP) - the market value of the Nation's output of goods and services - in current and real terms, GDP price measures, the goods and services that make up GDP in current and real terms, national income, personal income, and corporate profits. In addition, BEA produces specialized measures such as estimates of auto and truck output, GDP of corporate business, housing output, and business inventory and sales. Estimates of gross product originating by aindustry are prepared annually in current and real terms. Measures of the inventory and fixed capital stocks consistent with NIPA output measures are also provided. Further, the accounts provide a consistent framework within which estimates of analytic interest - such as the role of research and development in the U.S. economy or the interaction of the economy and environment - can be studied. Data conversion, statistical programming, and html and cgi development were done by Patrick Yott.

The purpose of SIPP is: "To collect source and amount of income, labor force information, program participation and eligibility data, and general demographic characteristics to measure the effectiveness of existing Federal, state, and local programs; to estimate future costs and coverage for government programs such as food stamps; and to provide improved statistics on the distribution of income in the Nation. " The survey design is a continuous series of national panels, with sample size ranging from approximately 14,000 to 36,700 interviewed households. The duration of each panel ranges from 2 1/2 years to 4 years. The SIPP sample is a multistage-stratified sample of the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized population. For the 1984-1993 Panels, a new panel of households was introduced each year in February. A new 4-year 1996 Panel was introduced in April 1996.
