LexBlog at TechShow: reporting live from Chicago

This week's annual ABA TechShow will be where all the legal technology news is happening, and LexBlog will be keeping tabs on all of it.

LexBlog Senior Project Manager Rob La Gatta and Editorial Manager Colin O'Keefe will be covering TechShow as legal reporters, providing updates at LexConference from on the ground in Chicago. LexBlog CEO Kevin O'Keefe will also be on hand to share his thoughts from the conference.

"Through Twitter, brief blog updates and multimedia such as video & photo streams, we will attempt to provide a 360 degree view of the conference for those unable to be there," Rob says.

The debut of LexConference marks a new frontier for the services LexBlog offers to the legal community.

"In the past, we've covered conferences minimally by updating Kevin's blog with brief interviews conducted by folks here in our Seattle office," Rob says. "LexConference gives us a powerful vehicle with which to build upon those interviews, as well as to provide other supplemental material, compiled by professionally trained journalists with a specific audience — the legal community — in mind."

The LexBlog team welcomes suggestions from TechShow attendees as well as those following from home. Contact us with your input and feedback.
