Hi Friends,
First, here are the top ten law professor blogs as determined by vistors on .edu networks on BlawgSearch.com. I set this filter up for Professor J. Robert Brown, Jr. and a paper he was writing on blogs and reputation. You can read his post about it here. While most .edu visitors are not all law professors, they do seek out more academic blogs. Anyway here is the list.
Hi Friends,
Let me start our new month of blogging with a post on the great new ABA Journal Website. The site went live a few weeks ago, and includes articles from the magazine, updated daily news and a legal blog directory. The site is from ABA Journal Editor and Publisher Ed Adams, Fred Faulkner IV and the ABA Journal Web development and editorial team.
If you have not checked the new ABA Journal Website out already, you definitely should!
Hi Friends,
Ken, Stacy and I are going to get back to blogging… finally 🙂 We have been working on a few legal information projects this summer… which we talk about in the next few weeks.
But first, congrats to Appalachian State for beating Michigan on Saturday. It was a great game that they deserved to win. Not everyday a division IAA schools visits the number #5 team in the nation and beats them in front of every 109,000 fans. In fact never before, not even something close. Well maybe Michigan can win the rest of their games, win the BCS championship and be the second best team in the country…. And for my other school.. I went to the Stanford – UCLA game, and UCLA won (on the positive side, my seats are in the shade and UCLA is my third favorite team :).
Hi Friends,
No trip to the great Northwest can take place without a meeting with the blog man himself, Lexblog CEO Kevin O’Keefe. Well this time we met up in Bellingham right in the middle of Dirty Dan Days in Fairhaven.
KOK found a parking space and then walked the walk to the Bellingham Fairhaven Boardwalk. And here are a few more pictures.
In H.P. Tries to Create Printers That Love the Web, the New York Times reported on this comment by Vyomesh I. Joshi, the Executive Vice President of HP’s Imaging and Printing Group:
“Reluctantly, I am doing blogs,” he told the employees at the companywide coffee talk. He said he needed to understand how they work. “Otherwise, we will be irrelevant.”
So, how might blogs make HP irrelevant?
Hi Friends,
Santa Clara Law Professor Eric Goldman and the High Tech Law Institute are having a Bay Area Blawgers Round Table and discussion this Wednesday night (March 28). It is open to all, but you need to RSVP to Eric by email.
There will be a lot of great technology law bloggers there (and Mary Minow — this weeks BlawgSearch.com’s featured Blawger :). You can get CLE credit and it is… free (except for parking 🙂
Hi Friends,
Everybody loves Hollywood and their protection of IP. And KCET, the public television station in Los Angeles (in Hollywood) is covering the latest IP action… PerezHilton.com’s unauthorized usage of X17 Online’s celebrity photos (and other companies’ photos as well, X17 are just the ones who are suing PerezHilton’s Mario Lavandeira).
You can watch a video on this The Fight Over Celebrity Photos on KCET’s Life & Time’s blog (and I added my prediction – X17 wins, PerezHilton loses). And you can read more about fair use on the Stanford Copyright & Fair Use Center.
Hi Friends,
Dave Swanner and gang, with some LexBlog help, have setup a great looking new Trial Lawyer Resource Center. It is a group blog, with original content aimed at helping trial lawyers with litigation strategies and their legal practice.
Others who are participating include: Gary Gober, Jay Harris, John Day, John Romano, Karen Shelton, Mark Zamora, Matt Garretson, Randall Scarlett, Fredrick Kuykendall, Ron Miller, Todd O’Malley and Thomas Kline.
Hi Friends,
Michigan beat Notre Dame… which means that a certain son who lives in the Seattle area under the roof of LexBlog’s Notre Dame grad CEO Kevin O’Keefe should start considering the University of Michigan as the football snow school of choice. I am sure KOK will get a few (more) hours of child labor to help his kid out in paying off his debt (to society 🙂 Now enjoy some nice photos…
