Technology Gadgets for Lawyers 1-10
I had the great pleasure of hosting a presentation called Tech Gadgets: Those You Need, Those You Want and Those That Make You Wonder at the 2015 ILTA Conference in Las Vegas. It was a lot of fun to research and review dozens of tech gadgets. And even better, I crowd-sourced the job and asked my fellow ILTA members to send me their recommendations for gadgets to include. Below are the first 10 gadgets we reviewed in the session. Look for the rest of the gadgets in future posts. Read more

What the Amazon Echo Taught Me About Knowledge Management (Hint: UX)
Update June 23, 2015: Amazon Echo is now available to everyone (you no longer need to be invited). Get it here.
Have you met Alexa? She is the voice of Amazon Echo, Amazon.com’s new artificially-intelligent device that listens to you and answers your questions. And with the latest software upgrade, it (she?) has entered the home automation arena and can perform some tasks around the house.
If you are still trying to wrap your head around this, think of Echo as Apple’s Siri technology inside a black cylinder about nine inches high and three inches in diameter, with a blue-green LED circle around the top rim.

ILTA’s SharePoint Symposium 2014, set for June 10th– 11th near Chicago, is designed to bring together professionals working with SharePoint in their firms or law departments.

Knowledge Management is Disappointing and Has Failed – Crowd Sourcing Comments for My KM Book
If you have been following my blog, you know that I have been crowd-sourcing comments for my KM book that will be published by the ABA in early 2014. Last week, I crowd-sourced comments about who leads KM in law firms. Thank you to those who commented (both on the blog and in emails directly to me). This week, it’s all about disappointment and failure.
I’m not talking about the various failures that we all have experienced in KM (or other) efforts in our careers. I’m talking about the failure of KM itself. Read more
Crowd Sourcing Comments for My KM Book – Who Leads KM in Law Firms?
I’m excited to report that I am writing a book about KM in the legal profession and it is scheduled for publication by the ABA in 2014. If you know me, then you know that I am a big fan of collaboration. I’m also always trying to think of ways to do things differently, better, and more effectively. I think I have come up with a way to make this a better book — one that will really resonate with KM professionals, law firm leaders, and those who want to learn about KM, and/or who are thinking of getting involved in KM in their law firm or legal department. That approach is to crowd source parts of the book from the KM community. See more below the chart…
