Rory Perry's - another legal blogger....with a Radio site. Denise Howell turned me on to this guy: "Rory L. Perry II,  the Clerk of the Supreme Court of Appeals in West Virgina (the state's high court).... He has his own blog, and also maintains one for the Court where new opinions and other information are available." Reading his essay on The Law is Free I feel like Neo when he tapped into The Matrix.  This guy gets it: "So now that courts have the power to deliver content themselves, why aren't they doing it? Well many are at least posting decision on their respective Web sites. And there are movements afoot to create common markup standards for court decisions. But why not take the next step? My guess is that the right technological answer hasn't been available yet. But with the advent of XML-RPC, SOAP, and DIY Web Services, I think the landscape is changing radically." Of course, Jenny was one of his early mentors....as she was for me.  If Dave Winer reads this post please put him on the Weblog Categories list under the rubric "Court Administrators." 9:05:01 PM

Rick Klau's article about blogging in the ABA Law Practice Mgt magazine Rick is a lawyer, who found gainful employment after law school (which is to say he didn't practice law, but devoted himself to helping lawyers use technology).  I'll be interested to see what sort of feedback he gets from his article, and whether it will steer more attorneys into the Radio Userland community. Oh, God, run for cover everybody.....the lawyers are coming, the lawyers are coming... 6:31:21 PM
