If you’re at all interested in legal academia, and if you haven’t already discovered them, some of the folks previously at “En Banc”:http://www.enbanc.org/ have formed a new blog called “De Novo”:http://www.blogdenovo.org, which is devoted in part to running on-line “symposia”:http://blogdenovo.org/symposia.html. I think this is an excellent innovation, and the De Novo bloggers are off to a great start. They’re currently running a blog-symposium–a blogosium?–about “Perspectives on Legal Education” (see “Day 1”:http://www.blogdenovo.org/archives/000035.html, “Day 2”:http://www.blogdenovo.org/archives/000037.html and “Day 3”:http://www.blogdenovo.org/archives/000049.html). For anyone thinking about going to law school, or currently suffering through it, there’s an especially good post by “Dahlia Lithwick”:http://www.blogdenovo.org/archives/000046.html.
The next symposium topic is “Internet, Law and Culture,” and they’re currently accepting submissions.
