I’m very excited about the opportunity today to talk at the ACC Chicago Chapter event on “How Social Media is Changing the Way We Do Business” being held at Drinker Biddle’s conference center in Chicago. It features three sets of panelists from both Drinker Biddle and top companies discussing a variety of topics, from how [...]

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been marveling over the experience I had during and after the Legal Marketing Association’s annual national conference. It was obviously an honor to be invited to speak about how law firms are using social media from an in-house marketing/communications perspective. The presentation itself went very well — it was [...]

Now that I’ve returned from the Legal Marketing Association’s annual conference, where I spoke on the topic of social media, I can report that many, many law firms (and their lawyers) find that social media is still something to be regarded as not worth the time or effort.

As promised, here’s the results of my survey of AmLaw100 firms who have a presence on Twitter. As I did my research, I was reminded how lousy the search function is on Twitter. I also came up against a search limitation after about 25 (or so) searches… I would have to wait until the top of [...]

For reference and posterity, I am sharing the results here on the blog, too. I also surveyed the same firms’ presence on [...]

I came across this article in Sunday’s Chicago Tribune that nearly perfectly juxtaposed the old world that seems to be falling away quickly with the new world that has arrived. The story is about the closing of a once-successful Chicago dairy – McDonald’s was a customer, buying supplies for its milkshakes – that fell victim to the [...]

I gave a presentation yesterday on “The Brave New World of Social Media” to folks from small and large businesses that were attending a program at my firm’s Chicago office. Not surprisingly, my program title’s days are numbered, as more and more businesses take the plunge into social media. Note that I didn’t refer to “social networking” in [...]

During the holidays, my wife and I got a chance to see the latest George Clooney vehicle, “Up in the Air.” It is a fine flick with terrific acting and captivating, if not occasionally predictable, storylines and characters. I definitely recommend seeing it, if you haven’t already. I don’t intend to spoil the movie for [...]

As a communications director, I’ve been asked to provide advice and guidance for professionals interested in starting a blog. (In my case, these folks are lawyers, who, you might guess, have no shortage of opinions but who also are very cautious about sharing them in a public forum like a blog.) The first bit of guidance [...]
