eDiscovery Daily Blog

• January 5, 2018

When we first started the eDiscovery Daily blog back in September 2010, it took a while for us to gain traction.  In fact, we were happy when we had 100 views in a given day on the blog.  Now we get several times that number daily.  Even on a holiday like Christmas Day, we still considerably exceed those early blog view numbers.  Back then, you could only view our blog from within our own site, but that’s not true anymore.  And, we’ve just added a new partner to the mix this week!

This week, the LexBlog Network began covering the eDiscovery Daily Blog and linking to our posts on their site.  The LexBlog Network is a community of more than 15,000 lawyers publishing on more than 1,000 blog sites. The network curates the best posts of members and shares them to network members via a consolidated website, blog feeds, and emails.  Our posts can be found on the site in the E-Discovery channel here.

LexBlog was founded by Kevin O’Keefe, who has his own LexBlog blog Real Lawyers Have Blogs, which is a terrific blog site about various legal, technology, social media and (of course) blogging topics (that sentence may have just set a record for the most times “blog” was used in a sentence).  LexBlog also made a recent significant announcement over the holidays that Bob Ambrogi, author of the terrific LawSites blog (which has been one of our favorite sources for stories over the years), has joined as publisher and editor-in-chief.

Over the years, we’ve been able to partner with other organizations to expand the reach of our blog.  In March of 2015, we announced that we had become an Education partner with EDRM and the EDRM site has a dedicated eDiscovery Daily page with links to our posts.  In October of 2016, we joined the JDSupra network as a partner and many of our posts are distributed through that network as well (and available here, try to ignore the picture of my big fat head).  That partnership has extended the reach of the blog considerably and we’ve even made the monthly most read list a few times (and won an award too, as you can see below).  :o)

We’re grateful to all of our partners to helping us extend the reach of this blog and excited about our new partner, The LexBlog Network.  Check it out!

Next week, starting Monday or Tuesday, we will be publishing our seventh annual case law review, with a recap of over 60 case law decisions we covered last year.  If you missed any, this is your opportunity to catch up!

So, what do you think?  Do you get your eDiscovery Daily directly from our site or via one of our partners?  Please share any comments you might have with us or let us know if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.
