Last week, we introduced the idea of initiating a law firm discussion list.
Lists are just one vehicle for building a sense of online community.
Traditional chat lets site participants have text-based discussions in real time. The latest instant messaging software goes one step further and enables chat using live voice technology. Now there are even roving Internet communities that discuss attributes of various sites, rate each others' comments and poll community members on pertinent issues. Conduct a virtual jaunt with like-minded colleagues and share opinions about the sites you visit. Once you download the software, and surf to a Web address, the uTOK panel pops up listing the site address and any associated discussion topics concerning that particular site.
