May 1, 2009 | Filed Under Litigation, Unplugged - Audio

There’s a lot here; listen for some interesting stats and a compelling vision. Legal headhunters may also want to click away and reflect on how a firm like VLP can tap into a large number of potential recruits within a week of going public.
I have a few thoughts, but I’ll save them for next week.
(I apologize for the static at a few points, it does clear up, and it’s not VLP, it’s my conference call provider. Or rather my ex conference call provider).

February 21, 2008 | Filed Under Unplugged - Audio, Technology
There’s a new and potentially game-changing technology for viewing files on the web. It’s called iPaper, from the people at the document-sharing website Scribd. The image below is a copy of my 2008 preview that was provided to subscribers of Wired GC - Select.
The technology is free, and I bet a few document-sharing application providers are gnashing their teeth right about now.
An audio explanation is located below this image (it’s multimedia Thursday at the Wired GC). The slider at the far right of this document allows you to scroll throught the four pages.
Just click on the red arrow to hear a short overview of iPaper and Scribd.

Merry Christmas to all…
And Rudolph recommends some music for your holiday listening pleasure…
