BlogLaw Central

Two words on the Blog Law and Blogging for Lawyers conference: Joe Gratz. (And his photos.) Great work. Left my MacBook at home (never, by the way, have I seen so many lawyers and so many Macs happily occupying the same space) and my notes with the hotel valet (quite a tipper, hmm?), will hopefully collect and blog the latter tomorrow. The talks so far have been eminently worthwhile, as you can see for yourself; Joe's capturing all the salient points.

David Maizenberg has more, not to mention a most welcome new blog: "Decisis – Law and Lawyering in the Attention Economy." (Though David has nothing if not questionable taste in his TV/video programming wishlist.)

Tomorrow should be particularly exciting, featuring among other things EFF's Kurt Opsahl, fresh off today's oral argument in Apple v. Does.

Kudos Cathy and Dennis, it's not easy to get a bunch of lawyers talking knowledgeably, sensibly, and informatively about blogging, and you've pulled it off with skill.

TidBits

Ian Best is collecting law review articles citing blawgs.

N.Y. Law Firm Ruled a Public Figure in Defamation Suit (and it doesn't even have a blog!). [Via]

Cool gift: Digital Photo Album.

Trying too hard: Binary Code Watch.

Wish I could go: The Singularity Summit (guaranteed to be the 21st century's legal-yet-every-bit-as-mind-altering alternative to a day spent tripping on acid).

Top Ten Signs Of Toddler Parenthood

Every now and then a Top Ten list bubbles out of me. It appears, however, that I've shifted themes a bit. As if the short person hurtling periodically across your field of vision weren't enough, here are some things that might indicate you've unleashed a toddler on the world:



  1. As fast as your child is getting big, you're getting old faster.

  2. Fruit leather. In all possible receptacles.

  3. Wikipedia provides helpful memory supplementation as to what precisely sleep might be.

  4. Ditto routine personal hygiene.

  5. Your vacuum cleaner cow has put in for overtime.

  6. Among the things keeping you up at night: two plus years, and counting, of precious/unedited video.

  7. Spousal exchange: "Whatever it is you're doing horizontal on the couch with the TV on, it's not child care."

  8. You have learned humankind has no innate ability to distinguish between a makeup brush and a paint brush.

  9. You have learned it does no good to allocate an iota of consciousness to all the times your child has almost, but not quite, done him/herself in.

  10. What sticks with you from Blawg Review #53: Things You Don't Want To Hear Your 5-Year Old Say.


List in progress: Top Ten Things A Toddler Is Thinking. Suggestions? (It won't rival this incredible spontaneous collaborative workthanks Jeneane, you made my week — but could be good for a chuckle or two.)
