Going four days without a nap (while communing with haikuists, nature, and relatives, in Rochester, NY) has left the entire f/k/a Gang in a state of severe hammock deprivation and suspended concatenation. Lucky for you, Anita Campbell of Small Business Trends weblog has been weaving together a list of recent weblawg articles of interest to small business persons and little-old busy-bodies, for this week’s Blawg Review #126. If you’re looking for something interesting to read, head over to Anita’s place (after finishing this post, of course).
To explain why her business website is hosting a lawyer weblog roundup, Anita has opined previously that “businesspeople can be better at business by learning more about the law. And lawyers can benefit from knowing more about business. Armed with knowledge, we are all better off.” She also appears to believe that lawyers have more creative blog names than their entrepeneurial counterparts. Among other fascinating recent blawg posts, Ms. Campbell points to pieces on:
- the skinny on the IRS whistleblower program in its latest iteration
- some suggestions for law firms willing to rethink their business models, (regarding the growing divide between high-paid and low-paid lawyers);
- whether tattoos a constitutionally protected form of self-expression? and
- if you have to pay attention to the email disclaimers that you see at the bottom of emails
Blawg Review #126 even has a link to f/k/a‘s recent discussion of the Dangers of Alternative Billing Methods (which has attracted some heated Comments – and responses), for which we are most grateful.
Prof. Yabut wants to get to bed, and haikuEsq wants to change the subject, as we close this breathless non-posting:
