Here's a selection from the last week or so of tweets that I and others think might interest those who don't use Twitter or who don't follow the authors of these tweets.
If you are on Twitter and read or publish something that you think we should re-broadcast here, simply include the hash tag #slawca in the tweet or retweet. If you've published something on Slaw, there's no need to use that hashtag on Twitter: all it does is bring to our attention things we might not otherwise have seen.
