fashionably late to the blawgthink ball

Well it seems that I am destined to be fashionably late to all things BlawgThink these days.

Day 1 – the newest member of DCR (more about that later) and I arrive late due to a very informative and interesting client breakfast.

Day 2 – all the RTIP guys arrive late because of a defective alarm clock : defective in the sense that it didn’t realize it was supposed to go off again even though one of us decided to turn it off when it went off at 5am.

Afterwards – everyone in the blog-o-sphere seems to have already posted their experiences and recollections.  See e.g. Almost Cool, Blogads Weblog, BK!, Knowledge Jolt, and Dave! of Preaching to the Perverted, among many many others.

It was another one of those events where you just gotta sit down and think about it for a couple of weeks.  I got a chance to decompress for all of 12 hours before I was off on a client trip – so I haven’t had much time to really get my ideas and impressions organized – they are spread across a number of folded and crumbled pieces of paper and I need to get them into some sort of order before posting about them here.

I promise I will – however, I have said it before and I will say it again – if it can’t be done in MindManager (using Gyronix’s Results Manager) it ain’t worth doing.

I will say this: there are some tremendous thinkers in the small corner of the blog-o-sphere where us lawyers hang out.  If I could find a way to corral all of these folks into one innovative and forward thinking organization, the world would never be the same from a client service point of view.  In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised to see more collaboration and innovation occurring sooner rather than later —  the legal services industry is about to be shaken up. 

And it goes without saying, Matt Homann and Dennis Kennedy are two of the most genuine and innovative folks out there – if you ever get the chance to spend some time with either of them, do not hesitate to take advantage of the opportunity.
