The State Bar of Wisconsin recently published an article on metadata that I co-authored with Wisconsin Practice Management Advisor Nerino Petro. Nerino and I have spoken on this topic before on a couple of occasions. This is a topic that far too many attorneys remain in the dark about.
If you are not sure what metadata is or how to manage it, I encourage you to go read the article.
You can find it here.

I am too young to have enjoyed Dick Cavett. Sure, I know who he is. However, I just never watched him on television.
Now I get the opportunity to experience him a new with his blog at the New York Times. He writes about a variety of topics and I find myself enjoying his posts more often than not. His latest post focuses on fame, but touches on a variety of other topics as well, including being careful about what conclusions we draw about people.
I know this has nothing to do with either technology or the law. However, I urge you to check out what he has to say.

I have arrived at the ISBA Solo and Small Firm Conference. I have already ran into some friendly faces and am excited about the upcoming programs. I am speaking on both Friday and Saturday, but I have today free to enjoy the conference, attend some sessions and visit with friends that I rarely get to see.
I hope to see you at the conference.

Sean Carter has proposed a Surivor-style blogging challenge in an attempt to build a habit of posting a blog entry each day. As Sean explains:
If you’re like me, then every Sunday afternoon, you say to yourself, “This week is the week that I start blogging regularly! I mean it this time!” However, before you know it, it’s Thursday and you haven’t posted a single entry on your blog. So you say to yourself, “Next week is the week that I start blogging regularly! I mean it this time!”
I know that I have had weeks like this and I like Sean’s idea of trying to get in a habit of posting daily. Hop over to Sean’s blog to see the full details.

I recently reviewed an electronic ARC of Fuzzy Navel by JA Konrath. I enjoyed the book and would certainly recommend it if you have read and enjoyed his other novels.
Anyway, the book’s release date is today. If you have been waiting for it, wait no more. If you have questions, check out my earlier review. In either instance, Fuzzy Navel is now available for purchase.
