The Legal Connection E-zine

 where legal technology and people connect

First and foremost, I'm all about security! Stay up to date with me by following me on twitter (http://twitter.com/legaltypist) and visiting my site's Security page often:  http://www.legaltypist.com/security


Below are a few issues of The Legal Connection Ezine (TLCxn) which I have self published since 2003. Take a peek and if you like, use the sign up box at the top of this page to get on the list.  10 issues per year - next one due out shortly.

Under the TLCxn Ezines, are a few of my most popular podcasts and a few free resources I recommend. 

I am always on the move, researching, interviewing, educating - to see what's coming up in the worlds of all things legal and digital.  If you hear of something you think I should know about, please email: editor[at]legaltypist.com  If you have questions, comments, feedback or wish to quote from, sponsor or advertise in TLCxn, please also e-mail editor[at]legaltypist.com and we'll get that right out to you.

Thanks and Enjoy!
