Announcing "BlawgWorld 2006: Capital of Ideas"
With pride I would like to announce the release this morning of "BlawgWorld 2006," the first in what is promised to be an annual series of "e-books" comprising the best of the blawgosphere, brought to you by our friends at TechnoLawyer. In their own words:
"According to various studies, approximately 80,000 new blogs launch every day, including dozens of legal blogs (blawgs). No one knows how many blawgs exist, but whatever the number, monitoring them would amount to a full-time job.
"For this reason, we've published BlawgWorld 2006: Capital of Big Ideas, a TechnoLawyer eBook designed to take you on a journey through 51 of the most influential blawgs.
"You cannot buy a copy of BlawgWorld 2006. It's free, but available exclusively to TechnoLawyer members. To receive your free copy, please use the form on this page."
The inaugural issue contains "best of" posts from 51 separate blawgs, and I am honored that the "sampler" from "Adam Smith, Esq." was chosen as the illustrative post featured on the BlawgWorld 2006 home page.
I encourage you all to take a look; clearly a lot of hard work has gone into this endeavor. And in the true original spirit of the 'Net, it is, I repeat, completely free.
Unfortunately, I cannot offer all of you the free drinks I and other contributors will be enjoying tonight courtesy of TechnoLawyer to celebrate the launch of BlawgWorld 2006. But if you're ever looking for a snappy bar in Tribeca, check out "Brandy Library," where we'll be congregating tonight.
