Comment on Announcing Google OS! Kinda… by Steve Matthews

Perhaps. But I’ve also read commentary that says this was a direct response to Bing, and MS pushing hard on the search front. Which also makes sense, but either way, I don’t have an issue with more competition in either market. :)

I agree from a personal standpoint, but from a marketing standpoint you have to give them credit. They are creating buzz this far off will certainly let them get off to a fast start.

Comment on What’s Your Tweetable Elevator Pitch? by Steve Matthews

Thanks for the feedback, Thorne. Yours is a cleaner alternative. By including the extra terms I was hoping to get the reader to ask, ‘what kind of work?’, and perhaps inspired further investigation.

Comment on LexisNexis says TCO for SaaS 22% Less by Dan

That is great. Not suprising at all.

In response to the previous comment, I have used NetDocuments. Still do. It is great.

I think google is right by saying that soon our only program will be our web browser.

Steve: those of us who live in the SaaS world and have serviced law firms welcome your perspective and coverage of this release by Lexis. To confirm what you are stating, NetDocuments has had large firms using SaaS-based DMS for years now, including Dorsey & Whitney, Kutak Rock, Lewis Brisbois, etc. all over 1000 users. There is also a difference if “web-based” and SaaS and I question if Interaction is truly “SaaS”.

Charon: When we add United Kingdom in quotes to the search, the results trim down to 25k profile pages. About the same as Canada. Does that help?

Doug: Chalk it up to not enough data points. This is a simple BF reminder to re-run the search and monitor the numbers.

Steve -

I have noticed lawyers poring into LinkedIn over the last year. (But just like other internet profile platforms, many are abandoned and not actively updated.)

One thing I find odd about the graph is that it looks fairly linear. I would have expected it to have more of a curve upward showing rapid adoption.
