It was a great night yesterday at the New York County Lawyer's Association here in New York City. I've been on a little hiatus this past week preparing the last minute research for the ethics portion of Law and Social Networking, which I was asked to provide. We had a great faculty and it was a big hit and will soon be available on video at Lawline, for those of you who are attorneys!
For the benefit of those here, I'll be uploading my materials for its educational and entertainment value! In addition to covering DMCA takedown notices I spoke about the ethics of asking a third person to make a friend request of an adverse witness to gain access to his/her private profile page as well as the ethics of blogging and microblogging (aka Twitter.) I'll provide more information like this and others in the blog as well as my personal blog too, for anyone who is interested.
For those of you who participated and might read this, thanks so much for putting on a great show!
