And on the other hand, there's a report from the Anti-LexThink!
While a bunch of smart people were attending the LexThink! gathering in Chicago recently, the Anonymous Lawyer must have been attending whatever the antithesis of LexThink! is. Here are his sentiments.
Cross-reference: Jeremy Blachman, The Attorney-Client Relationship (for those who don't know, Jeremy is known as, among other things, the creator and author of a fictional weblog called "Anonymous Lawyer." And he attended the real LexThink! gathering.)
Also: Douglas Sorocco (on rethink(ip)), Is your attorney working for you or against you?; Meaningful and Nonbillable Conversations with Clients, and — heck, just go over to rethink(ip) and read everything there. It's not just about intellectual property law. Not by a long shot.

Anonymous Lawyer used to be a personal favorite, but it lost all its pizzazz (sp?) when Blachman came out. I haven't been over there since the Fall. He came out way too early. Needed to milk it for a couple years.
BuffsLaw-
That's a good point. On the other hand, if he hadn't identified himself as the author of the weblog, it's less likely he'd have landed a book deal to write an extended diary of the "Anonymous Lawyer" for print publication. We'll have to wait and see whether the book will sell without the mystique prompted by the question whether it's a real character and true stories.
