Clio Calendar Upgrade (and how!)

Here’s a video of the enhanced calendar put out by Clio on Vimeo.

The guys from Clio show off in this short video and I can’t blame them. Having used Clio for over a year, I did hand-springs when I saw the improvements. Almost makes me want to forgive them for winning the gold in Hockey at the Winter Games!

Foursquare’s First TV Commercial

See if you can tell who Foursquare is targeting in it’s first TV Spot

By MG Siegler on Feb 24, 2010 for TechCrunch

First Google, now Foursquare. Hot on the heels of Google’s first search-related television ad during the Super Bowl, location-based social network-as-game sensation Foursquare is gearing up to do the same thing tonight on cable network Bravo during the show Sheer Genius from 9 to 10 PM. It’s a 20-second spot in which Foursquare highlights its recently announced partnership with the network. The idea is to show users real-world locations for Bravo’s show.

Now this is hardly a piece of legal or even legal-tech news, except that Foursquare is the embodiment of the casestreaming concept I wrote about in this TechnoLawyer piece over a year ago. Oh, how the times have changed. And now that location-aware apps are all around us, including Twitter of course which got geolocation capabilities last year, we’re all that much closer to being forced into acknowledging colleagues in our vicinity whether we want to or not. I think I just felt a chill run down my spine.

the Christmas gift of tomorrow … today!

Mag+ from Bonnier on Vimeo.

If like me you still have not decided what to get your loved-ones for Christmas, may I suggest the product featured in this video? Sure it’s just a demo, but it elegantly demonstrates the future of books, magazines, and newspapers. Before you dismiss this as science fiction, remember that

+ Readers like the Kindle II were once imaginary and are now ubiquitous
+ Microsoft, Apple, TechCrunch, and others plan to release tablets in 2010
+ Cell phones are now mobile computing platforms (iPhone, Android, etc.)
+ Cloud computing means the Internet is now everywhere

Happy Holidays everyone!

You know you have a following when …

… websites that aggregate 3rd-party applications compete for your favor. Case in point, the following 5 iPhone app aggregators are featured in this post on RWW

Chorus
AppsFire
Yappler
Appolicious
App Genius

This is where survival of the fittest takes on a whole new meaning. Even the folks at Read/Write/Web aren’t sure which one is the best of the best. Now, if only our industry inspired such creative aggregation, maybe someone would have a shot at unseating the Legal Research Duopoly that rules our lives.

Hey, a guy can dream …
