Since at least 1997, TechnoLawyer has published a network of highly regarded legal technology and practice management e-newsletters. Today, it officially moves into the blogosphere, with the launch of TechnoLawyer Blog. At the same time, it is unveiling a revamped Web site, which for the first time creates a distinct home page for each of its newsletters.

The blog has two goals, says publisher Neil J. Squillante — provide helpful content to existing TechnoLawyer members and encourage nonmembers to join TechnoLawyer and sign up for the newsletters. (Joining is free and provides access to the newsletters and archives.) Posts to the blog by Squillante and Sara Skiff will cover:

  • Coming attractions. Every Friday, the blog will provide coming attractions for each of the following week’s newsletters.
  • Quips. Short posts containing useful information or pithy commentary.
  • Member news. Reports on the personal and career news of TechnoLawyer members.
  • TechnoEditorials. Opinions and advice on legal technology and practice management issues.
  • Industry and TechnoLawyer news. Occasional reports on interesting items the news publications miss.
  • The Best Ads. The most creative and popular ads from the TechnoLawyer newsletters.

The revamped Web page gives each TechnoLawyer newsletter its own home page. This is being done, Squillante says, to give them a Web identity and help dispel the notion some have that TechnoLawyer is a discussion list rather than a series of newsletters. The pages are:
