5 Blogs & 5 Blawgers
I've been tagged by Brooks Schuelke to participate in an "internet meme" started by the anonymous Editor of Blawg Review a couple of weeks back. The concept works sort of like a chain letter: the respondent in this meme is supposed to identify and link to five non-law blogs of interest and then tag five other law bloggers to do the same.
If you start with Brooks's post, you can trace the thread backwards and sideways and get some idea of the power behind the meme concept. (The phrase "going viral" comes to mind.) Because I'm a "rules guy" by nature—which goes a long way toward explaining why I'm an appellate lawyer—I have complied with Ed's request that each post be named "5 Blogs & 5 Blawgers."
So, here are my choices for non-law blogs:
- Daily Writing Tips: a good resource for simple, yet effective tips to improve your writing.
- June Walker: tax and financial advisor to the self-employed since 1979.
- Lifehacker: featuring tips, shortcuts, and downloads intended to help you get things done smarter and more efficiently.
- LinkedIn Blog: an education in social networking with a business focus.
- Twitter Handbook: for those of us trying to get our minds around the concept of "tweeting" without laughing out loud.
The following law bloggers are tagged to continue the meme: fellow appellate types Howard Bashman and Greg May; fellow Texans Barry Barnett and Wayne Schiess; and Inhouserantor (who a number of us wish would post more often).
