Pushing out public information
Ernie the Attorney: "most law firms are behind the curve with their websites as far as providing fresh content. Denise Howell and I have talked about whether law firms will use blogs to help "push" fresh legal news out to their potential clients. RSS feeds would be good, but the clients would have to be able to receive them, and we're definitely not there yet. I really think that more effort should be focused on the Internet and less on things like mail-out newsletters. "
I agree, and would add that courts and other public information providers should use blogs, RSS feeds, and whatever else it takes to get the information out there. Courts could be providing a much more robust back end for lawyer/writers like Ernie and Denise -- imagine a world where these clear-thinking writers could subscribe to court RSS feeds and translate the judicial decisions correctly, well before mainstream journalism gets it wrong (or incomplete). This is already happening on a small scale -- Denise and Ernie recently clarified a journalist's overly broad reading of a ruling on inline linking. 9:05:22 AM [Permanent Link]
