Directory post….warning….It’s been on my mind, and Heather’s twisted post on a Zagat Guide to Lawyers opened the door, at least enough for me to step in and post this lurking question. The door may knock me in the butt on my way out, but well, here goes… Another legal directory has launched – BuscAbogados.com
Ready, Set, Chambers – Summer Vacation is Over
Earlier this week I got an e-mail from Jaffe Associates reminding me that although the 2008 Chambers USA Guide just came out, it’s time to start gearing up for 2009. Reminds me of all the back to school sales, in the middle of July. Didn’t summer vacation just start??
I’m sure you’ll be shocked to
The AmLaw 100 is Crack for Lawyers
I might be kicking myself for this post later on in my career, but here it is: I am so offended by this panel at ALM Event’s CMO conference:
League Table Recognition: How to jump 10 spots on the AmLaw 100
One thing that brings out the competitive nature of CMOs and marketers everywhere
Are You A Follower?
I am intrigued by “tweeting.” You can do it, too, on Twitter.
Twitter is a free service that lets you keep in touch with people using the web, your phone, or IM. In Twitter, you can be a Follower of others, for whom you would receive updates, and you can be Followed, where others
Martindale Connected
Thanks to my friends at Martindale for allowing me to preview the beta site for Martindale Connected. I was asked to do this to provide candor and feedback. Sorry to disappoint, but I don’t think it is appropriate for me to share the specifics of what I saw and what I said, right now
The Best Things in Life Are Free
I am one of the 16,600 people on Peter Shankman’s HARO (Help a Reporter Out) e-mail distribution. I joined on April 30th when there were about 800 members. Peter has obviously touched a nerve and has met a need that wasn’t being met, or wasn’t being met to its potential. It is amazing
Client Service: It’s about them, not you
We (attorneys and legal marketers) are so ready to pounce and make the kill. Bring in that new client, new matter, or new case. Yes! We won the beauty contest. We got picked over Skadden. They like us, they really, really like us.
But it’s not really about us. It’s about the client. I loved
“It’s My Reputation on the Line”
I don’t think a legal marketing conference should ever get away without a general counsel panel. I have never walked away without helpful new information or confirmation of theories I have.
Yesterday’s panel at LMA-LA’s Annual CME Conference, moderated by Peter Zeughauser, was no different. “Bridging the Gulf” Conversations with In-House Counsel”
Just Because … I’m at a conference all day
Off to LMA-LA’s annual CME today. While the whole program looks great, I’m really looking forward to Ross Fishman presenting on differentiating your firm & website, Jeffrey Henderson’s SEO presentation, and the GC panel moderated by Peter Zeughauser. Enjoy the video.

Don’t Call My iPhone – Part 2
I’ve said before that I’m a 2.0 kinda gal. Let some tech geek with no life be the guinea pig and work the kinks out of whatever new product. I can wait.
Should have waited for the 3.0 iPhone.
I have to admit that since I was FINALLY activated on Saturday, in an experience
