Tomorrow, I’ll be giving a webinar at Cornell Law School on how lawyers can harness the power of social media. Much as I love my alma mater, given that Cornell isn’t actually on the cutting edge of anything (except Cascadilla Gorge), I’m surprised at the level of interest in, and the expected turn out for a talk on social media. In case you’re interested, the presentation is below; I am forever trying to figure out the best way to present on this topic – if you spend a few minutes on SlideShare, you’ll see that there are dozens of ways to approach it. In any event, here’s mylatest effort (this one has a bit of a job focus since that was one area of interest for the law school)
Next up on the social media circuit: in two weeks, Nicole Black and I present on social media here in DC at MyLegal.com. We’d love to meet up with you then!
Looks pretty good. Some of the formatting on the slides seems a bit off but that might just be the way it looks on slideshow.
I’m still not sold on JDSupra though. I haven’t seen any evidence that it has any reach outside of other lawyers, and relatively limited at that.
In defense of Cornell, though not completely law related, the Cornell Project Management Method site that I blogged about last week is one of the best open management sites on the web:

Of course, that’s from the business school and they have to be useful and relevant to their students unlike law schools.
