Legal Commentary

We've decided to add a Twitter panel to LTNY, and what a panel it is:

  "What is Twitter and How Can I Use It?"  Monday, Feb. 2, from 3 to 4 p.m., in the 4th floor Hilton West Ballroom (same one being used for the general sessions).

Among the questions we'll address:

* At the end of the day is Twitter the ???ultimate time waster??? or a ???great tool????

* From 'huh?" to "a ha!" - one lawyer's journey into the Twitterverse.  -- alternative title "How I learned to stop worrying and love to Tweet!"  

* Time to Tweet?  How to use Twitter without losing time to Twitter.

* Lawyers, Twitter and Client Development *How lawyers are using Twitter for sharing and camaraderie among each other.
