The 2006 Blawggies: Best law-related blogging awards are out
Dennis Kennedy, one of the true pioneers in lawyer blogging, released his annual Blawggies this evening.
Dennis acknowledges no voting is involved and the awards are based on his own ‘personal and highly-opinionated perspective.’ At the same time Dennis likes to see blogs with “(1) consistently useful content, (2) a generous and helpful approach, and (3) a combination of commitment and talent, with an emphasis on good writing.”
