  • This is an interesting essay and a good start. It seems to me that you have placed almost exclusive emphasis on low-level information exchanges: basic research, form books and templates, and gossip/business intelligence (or whatever else you call shoptalk). You are right that there have been technological changes bearing on each, though you perhaps overemphasize those changes to the extent that one is asked to suppose, for example, that jurisdictionally and conceptually precise research was difficult using digests and printed case reports.

  • What we don't find here is writing about the higher-order intellectual consequences of the technology shifts: How is the lawyer's ability to conceptualize and persuade affected at less immediate levels by the technological assists available? Can lawyers collaborate outside the structure of firms or other practice aggregations more easily or more effectively? Are some efforts that used to be outside the limits of possibility now achievable? How might remedies or complex ongoing monitoring change? Etc.
