Comments on: Whither Mac Law Students? http://maclawstudents.com/blog/administrative/whither-mac-law-students/ Macintosh + Law School Tue, 07 Oct 2008 04:39:07 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Erik Schmidt http://maclawstudents.com/blog/administrative/whither-mac-law-students/#comment-346 Erik Schmidt Sun, 04 Mar 2007 16:28:22 +0000 http://maclawstudents.com/blog/administrative/whither-mac-law-students/#comment-346 Actually, Shelly's comment makes me wonder how many sub-audiences there are for Mac/law content and how a "MacsForLaw" site could best fit in the overall Mac law blog environment. At present I know of the <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.maclaw.org/">MacLaw</a> listserv (which is very helpful), <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.macattorney.com/">MacAttorney</a>, which combines out-of-date with up-to-date content, Ben Stevens' <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.themaclawyer.com/">The Mac Lawyer</a>, and Grant Griffiths' <a rel="nofollow" href="http://gdgrifflaw.typepad.com/home_office_lawyer/">Home Office Lawyer</a>. For some time I've also been contemplating the addition of a discussion board to Mac Law Students. That might make MLS more of a hub for discussion. Then again, it might just be more hassle than it is worth. Thoughts?

See, this is why I asked readers for their ideas. Sometimes I'm not very good at seeing the obvious. Hi Shelly,

I think that’s an excellent idea. See, this is why I asked readers for their ideas. Sometimes I’m not very good at seeing the obvious.

This will open up the site nicely, and carry through your career - no need to shut it down.

I'm already envious of you for living in Barcelona. ;) Pedro,

As to the photo, it's from Barcelona (sunset at Montjuic's Castle) where I currently live, and it's cycled every weekend. I'll send you a few more when I get home (just to make envy for living on such a city). Regarding the website, I guess writing in portuguese does limit the audience. Maybe translating a few of my posts, namely the ones with personal opinions on leopard or the apple current lineup, wouldn't be a bad idea. Pedro Erik,
