what’s a googley lawyer?
using google is easy
emulating google can be hard, for lawyers
jeff jarvis: transparency?
wwgd?
most googley
a brief history of internet time...
’89, sir tim berners-lee: “It seemed evident that it should be a space
in which anyone could be creative, to which anyone could contribute.“
’96: creating credit card debt we’re still paying off; aside from taking
our money, sites are static
’00: silly season
’01:
free, easy tools spawn 2-way web
’06: 50+million blogs; other asynchronous, 2-way
communications flourishing
election year ’08 >> asynchronous two-way web goes real-time
something big was *bound* to come of all this
a lawyer’s most important commodity and resource
reasoning?
information gathering
and sharing is foundation
for all that follows
high signal/noise in
intake and output
social news/net works
rss
tagging aggregation
blogs vlogs podcasts microblogging
photo/video sharing wikis
remote conferencing
live video+chat
social bookmarking
asynchronous and real-time tools -
both firehose and filter
eschew social media if -
you’re engaged in criminal acts and
prone to be up-front about it...
you’re abrasive - people leave you
caustic voicemails? death or other
unpleasant threats?...
you’re likely to disclose military
intelligence...
you’re incapable of expressing yourself
in 140 characters or less...
otherwise, have at it
a word about marketing
you get to fire them. particularly if they want to keep sending out brochures and
newsletters. (or hiring atomic tangerine.)
a word about law
(see: firing marketing.) confidentiality, ethics, legal obligations are cross-platform.
have simple policies+training. read eff’s blogging legal guide.
