Six of the pioneers of legal blogs (i.e., “blawgs”) — Tom Migdell, Dennis Kennedy, Ernest Svenson, Marty Schwimmer, Denise Howell, and Rick Klau — are collaborating on a new blawg called The Blawg Channel. Ernie described the purpose of the new blawg in the following manner:
[to promote] some positive changes in the legal world, and, more particularly, in the newly-minted realm of lawyer blogs. Somehow the Internet seems to have injected steroids into the concept of self-publication, and we believe that we can use this blog in a way that is beneficial to lawyers (especially those that who aren’t themselves blogging but who, nevertheless, want to tap into blogs as a source of useful legal information). And, since I mentioned steroids, I should mention, for what it’s worth, that a couple of us are even willing to submit to drug tests.
Dennis kicked it off with a post “What five things can lawyers do to better serve entrepreneurs and their businesses?” Given the contributors’ knowledge and insight, this new blawg has great potential as a resource for lawyers. I recommend that you check it out regularly.
