Hi Professor Neustadtl,
I have developed a repository for sociology data tailored for researchers, and especially students. The site is open and free, and has over 3 million social, financial, and economic time series datasets available for downloading. Importantly, the ease by which a user can find, trim, transform, merge, and download time series data from www.quandl.com is in my opinion, unmatched elsewhere.
My hope is that you will visit the site briefly, and perhaps offer me some feedback. More information about the service is below. I've also included my LinkedIN profile should you be weary of my intentions with this email.
www.quandl.com/academics
with thanks,
Tammer
