Profile: Western Law School Bloggers

Western Law has a new student paper, Amicus Curiae.

On page 7 of their second issue, released earlier this week, they profile some of the student bloggers in our school.

We have Legally Blogged, by Chris Crighton, who also maintains a site at Esse Quam Videri.

There’s also Dany Horovitz’s, Business Blogged, of the Financial Post Executive Blog. Dany is in the 3-year joint J.D./M.B.A. program with Ivey, the only one of its kind in Canada, and focuses more on business law. He also cross-posts to Law Is Cool.

And there’s a piece by Lawrence Gridin and yours truly, also referencing Law Is Cool and of course Slaw. I make a point of mentioning that the relationships I develop with the many contributors and readers here is part of my informal mentorship and education.

It’s interesting to see the lines between print and digital media blurred, especially since some of the Amicus Curiae staff are also opting to post their material online as well.

More importantly, we hope to foster a whole new generation of lawyers who are comfortable with new media, and hopefully infuse the legal profession with early adopters and progressive initiatives.
