I wrote in May 2006 about Lawbby, a site that aspired to be the MySpace of the legal world. Lawbby described itself as a place where lawyers could mingle, whether for business or pleasure, by creating their own profiles and groups. But in recent days, attempts to visit the site were rerouted to a page that said, “This account has been suspended.” So much for mingling.
