Join “Legal Innovation” at LinkedIn
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m serving as Chair this year of the InnovAction Awards, an annual presentation by the College of Law Practice Management (which, by the way, has announced the September dates for its high-powered Futures Conference).

About ABA TECHSHOW
Just a quick note this morning to take part in an Internet meme I can get behind: a two-day promotional effort for ABA TECHSHOW in Chicago April 2-4. If you don’t know (and if you read this site, that’s pretty unlikely), ABA TECHSHOW is the world’s premier legal technology CLE conference & expo. It’s a… Read more »

Law21 makes ABA Journal’s Blawg 100 list
I’m delighted and honoured to report that the editors of the ABA Journal have included Law21 in their 2008 listing of the 100 best law blogs. It totally caught me off guard — I didn’t even know they were handing these things out this month — and I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s an… Read more »
A high-calibre crystal ball
When Dennis Kennedy contacted me a few weeks ago, to ask if I’d like to participate in an online roundtable on the impact of the economic crisis on lawyers to be published in the ABA’s Law Practice Today e-zine, I of course said yes on the spot. But when I logged into the site and… Read more »
The power of positive blogging
It’s not often I can derive a blog post from a tweet, but Debbie Weil‘s recent Twitter entry sent me to this thought-provoking post at CopyBlogger, and got me thinking about the purpose of the legal blogosphere. Brian Clark’s entry talks about the phenomenon of “social proof” — people’s tendency to judge the quality of… Read more »
