[Oregon Law Practice Management] Adding LinkedIn as a Shared Service to WordPress
When LinkedIn announced the launch of a new share button for WordPress on November 30, 2010 I was ecstatic! Sad to say my happiness lasted all of five minutes, since the posted code didn’t work. Along with other LinkedIn/WordPress users, I left a comment pointing out the problem, and included the error message I received. Since then I have [...]

[Compujurist] ioSafe debuts new Rugged Portable external drives at CES
I'm a big fan of ioSafe external hard drives for data backup and protection from fire, water or impact (go ahead, crush it with a tank). You can check out videos of their drives being torched, dunked, crushed by a tank at the links below the break. However, weighing in at 15lbs, no one would call their previous products portable. That's all changed with the introduction of their ioSafe Rugged Portable line of drives at his years Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, NV..

[Law Practice Advisor] Hedging Bettors: New-Fangled Attorneys as Stop-Gap Entrepreneurs Split Hobson’s Choice
With the market saturation of attorneys in Massachusetts, coupled with the general down economy (still) and relatively high unemployment figures, there’s bound to be a job shortage for lawyers who want to practice law and to work for someone else. The math doesn’t manage otherwise.

[PA Law Practice Management] A New Blog — You’ll Want to Subscribe to This One
Most of you are familiar with the excellent CLE courses which have been prepared by Jennifer Ellis at the PA Bar Institute, even if you don’t know Jennifer personally. It’s a shame that most of the time she is in the background instead of on the podium, as her skill in bringing seminar ideas to fruition are clearly eclipsed by her vast knowledge and considerable presentation skills. I have had the pleasure of sharing the podium with her on many an occasion, and it has always been a...
