Blue sky predictions...

Jordan Furlong over at the Law21 blog has been thinking about the future of Law and has posted the first ever Legal Profession Blue-Sky Challenge!

At the end of the blog post Jordan asks readers to make their own predictions for the future of Law...which made me think what predictions would BIALL members make about the future...so here are mine in order of probability...

- The BIALL Conference will take place in Manchester next year.

Odds: Evens

- BIALL will change its name and logo within the next two years.

Odds: 50 to 1

- At least one legal publisher will move to being completely online only.

Odds: 75 to 1

- I will never again be seen "strutting my stuff" on the dancefloor at the BIALL Conference.

Odds: 2000 to 1

- LexisNexis Butterworths and Thomson Reuters will merge and rule the world.

Odds: 50000 to 1

What else do BIALL members think could happen in the next few years? Don't be shy the more blue-sky the better!
