Live blogging from Social Tools for Business use
How technology is changing business and law, Justin Patter from Human Law
Legal issues:
Defamation - E-mail is more dangerous as a form than the Blog, there is an illusion of privacy with e-mails which isn't present with Blogs. Hence people are more careful with what they write in Blogs. Companies have been stung for what employees have written in personal blogs.
The Court of PR - Blogging has given individuals more scope to attack brands e.g. linking to negative stories. Bad press for the company Baker McKenzie dominates Google search results after they got into a fight with the influencial blog Boing Boing
Ruth Ward , Allen and Overy - Entries on Wikipedia are just as important as results on Google, it's seen as a source of expert knowledge.
