Appreciate the practical tips.

Very informative for an old novice.

Good

Excellent collection of differing approaches to a broad range of tech issues. Thank you!

Great content and valuable for my practice

Good solid introduction to the main "technology" areas an attorney needs to know and why. Would be nice if a definition of technology was provided. Seems to mean use of computers, and computer networks, as the fundamental form for documents and their communication?
