I’m excited to announce that I’ll be presenting a webinar on one of my favorite topics – productizing legal services – on Thursday, March 7. It’s free and the registration details are here.
It’s the first of what I expect to be many collaborations with FoundationLab, a legal design studio doing cool things.

And so it begins . . .
I realized the other day that I had first written about blogs well over a year ago. In fact, the rise of blogs was one of my 2002 predictions for legal technology in

The Hard Thing About Hard Things, Ben Horowitz
Build an A Team, Whitney Johnson
Portfolio Life, David Corbett
The E-Myth Revisited, Michael Gerber
For All the Tea in China, Sarah Rose
Gridiron Genius, Mike Lombardi
