I did qualify it with a question mark since I first heard that term here at the CALL conference two days ago. Well, I figure managing your personal work/flow of info for your own work is part of PKM.

The idea of concierge style executive services has a lot of merit, especially for a solo practitioner. The ability to identify the biggest time wasters, and outsource those tasks one-by-one is both cost effective and time efficient. Plus, the lack of employee overhead, red tape, training, etc. Not sure if this is PKM Connie (typo?), although I guess it could be if he was hiring a digital law librarian :-), but it is good business. Relates to your comments last week on the <a href="http://www.slaw.ca/2007/05/02/virtual-law-offices/#comment-101801" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">virtual law firm</a>, and Simon C's post about the <a href="http://www.slaw.ca/2007/05/03/is-outsourcing-legal-research-ethical/" rel="nofollow" rel="nofollow">ethics of outsourcing</a>. A lot of advantages to being small and nimble these days. Some risks depending on what's being outsourced, but lots of advantages. :-) Rob's a smart guy.
