Perhaps a more political version than WellyRoadWorks, but certainly more interesting to me, is this twitter feed I created which shows the oil price change whenever it moves up or down to the next whole dollar. Whether political, geological, or purely a function of over-eager oil speculators, the message is clear, everything that depends on oil is getting more expensive.
