Oh my God: Blogs
Shit, as an attorney, we are 5 to 7 years behind the times. Really.
Alright. I've heard about blogs before. Sort of. And I'm a pretty hip attorney. I actually know who Seth Godin is. My friend Lily talks about blogging. I saw an article on the subject once in Newsweek. But I had NO idea there were law blogs. Who knew?
When I happened to read another post on Typepad.com I just happened to stumbled onto the non-billable hour blog. Oh my God. My brain was just blown open. There are good-writing lawyers out there. Who knew?
It's confirmed. I'm a blogger. I just didn't know it.
And to think that I have been saving all these break-up emails for no other reason than I liked them and couldn't bare to delete good writing, even if it was coming in the form of an email from someone I didn't want to date anymore.
I think I must feel the same way a 14 year old boy feels when he learns the joy of the joy stick for the first time (video game variety).
Speaking of behind the times about blogs, last night on 20/20 Barbara Walters interviewed Rosie O'Donnell and her partner. She said "Rosie writes in something called a blog." Imagine that said in Barbara Walters voice. It was pretty funny. It was like Rosie was the only one on earth doing it.
