SOCIAL MEDIA AND LAWYERING

There are three parts to this week’s homework…

PART 1

Find three examples of a lawyer or law firm using social media effectively – that is – it provides a service or information that could lead to someone seeking out this lawyer or their firm as a client.   These could be blog posts, twitter tweets, podcasts, Facebook pages, etc.   If you can link them, put the link into the homework wiki with a short explanation of why you think they are effective use of social media.

PART 2

Find three examples of a lawyer or law firm’s poor use of social media.  If you can link them, put the link into the homework wiki with a short explanation of why you think they are effective use of social media.  If you cannot link to them (or are uncomfortable doing so in a public forum), then explain the usage generically and why you think it is a poor use of social media.

PART 3

Use some form of social media (blog, twitter, Facebook, etc, etc,) to make people aware of the archive of this (http://tdlp.classcaster.net) course or of a specific class in this course that people might want to watch OR avoid.   Use the hashtag #tdlp (if appropriate) so that others in the class and myself can find your work.  Optionally, but a link to your social media work in the homework wiki.
