If you use Microsoft Outlook 2010, one of the best investments you can make is to buy The Lawyer's Guide to Microsoft Outlook 2010 by Ben Schorr, a well-respected IT consultant, author and lecturer. Ben's witty and engaging style makes the book fun as he takes you on a tour of this robust software, with tons and tons of practical tips that you can use right away. You're likely to keep putting the book down to try out his suggestions and you'll undoubtedly find yourself saying "I didn't know it could do that" again and again. Lawyers rarely use more than 5 to 10% of their software. If you really want to learn all the ways that Outlook 2010 can make you more efficient and productive, this is the book for you. E-mail is wildly out of control for most lawyers - learn how to manage it well. And there is so much more that we can all do with our Tasks, Calendars, Contacts, etc. Prepare to be amazed and delighted at how much Outlook can improve the way you practice law. Great job Ben! Click here to purchase...
