Lawblog 2008

A confession is required: Geeklawyer has been so busy this year he hasn’t had time to do anything for the conference. Given also the disappointing drop off of UK lawyers blogging there is also the question of attendance which it must be feared would be sparse.
The suggestion has been made and accepted, therefore, that a […]

bloggers beers

OK, the venue for Monday’s beers is upstairs at the Harp in Covent Garden/Charing Cross from 6.30pm onwards. The Harp has decent-ish beer and though it can be a bit crowded downstairs it is sometimes free upstairs - if it’s too crowded the proceedings may be transferred to a different court, with no order as […]

In da house

Geeklawyer has been quiet of late due to attending various conferences and spending a long weekend in Yorkshire. He was intending to refrain from blogging for a few days more but has been outraged to see that Ruthie is attempting to usurp his role as social organiser for the law bloggers drinking contest.
Fortunately for […]

Gikii conference - Society for Computers & Law

Since he is participating in a round table panel Geeklawyer feels that he should punt the Society for Computers and Law’s conference. Billed as a “conference without the boring bit” the programme and the speakers & topics look very very interesting indeed. It’s geared towards looking at the issues of law facing the newest web […]

Lawblog 2007 report

Yes.
Caveats exist on the delight both Geeklawyer and Ruthie felt about the results: it was a little small, though […]

Law Blog 2007: they thought it was all over, it is now.

As the curry stains are being wiped and the dregs of rioja shaken from the bottle, Ruthie reflects on the outcome of first European law blogging conference, and firstly remains astounded that so many people including influential members of the blogging community attended, and secondly that the day passed off seemingly without a hitch.
A big […]

Lawblog 2007 curry

Geeklawyer has not had a beer in the Square Mile for five years. And when he last did so he managed to blag it on expenses - you know, chatting up clients and all that old bollocks.
For the post conference curry evening Ruthie and Geeklawyer agreed to test the local curry houses. While waiting for […]

Conference update - May

All is looking good for the conference. Speakers are all lined up & mostly confirmed, the catering is sorted. Only a few minor points remain: will Dan Hull turn up? (Ruthie is wet & dreaming - but Geeklawyer will defend his property); will Geeklawyer finish writing his talk? Will Minor Junior try and gatecrash the […]
