I have been publishing a lot of posts on my law blogs - Social Security Disability blog and Georgia Bankruptcy blog and I have been encouraging my lawyer colleagues to get on the blog bandwagon.

First, I can say with some certainty that I have become more knowledgeble about these two areas of law because of the time I spend posting to my blogs. I have subscribed via my Google home page to a number of blogs in these subject areas and I am constantly exposed to new developments, and more particularly practical ideas.

Interestingly, when I discuss blogging with other lawyers, I generally get a blank stare. Right now there are probably less than 10 active lawyer bloggers who regularly post - and that is in the entire State of Georgia.

I have even offered several of my lawyer colleagues a log-in to one of my legal blogs so they can post without worrying about the administration - a few have shown mild interest but no one has actually done anything.

Anyway, I recently came across a very erudite blogger named Paul Stamatiou from Georgia Tech whose blog contains several insightful posts about blog usability and blog traffic - especially his comments about SEO for blogging. Its well worth a read and a subscription to Paul's blog.
