For the reasons given <\/FONT>here<\/FONT><\/A> (scroll down to Link Love?<\/EM>), I have never <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
had a “<\/FONT>blogroll<\/FONT><\/A>.”  Nevertheless, tonight I did place a link in the f\/k\/a<\/EM> <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
Sidebar to<\/FONT> the myHq<\/EM> law weblog<\/A> page, which originated with the un-<\/FONT><\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
identified <\/FONT>Editor of Blawg Review<\/FONT><\/A><\/EM>, and is being maintained by said Ed.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
and BR<\/EM>‘s asso<\/FONT>ciate editor-elves.  <\/FONT><\/FONT><\/DIV>

\n
Nice List<\/STRONG><\/EM>: The myHq<\/A> aggregation of law-oriented weblogs is <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
comprehensive, presented in alphabeticized columns, on one <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
page, and <\/FONT>divided into useful categories: e.g<\/EM>., Lawyers, Law <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
Students, <\/FONT>Law Professors, Judges, Law Libarians, Humor, <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
and more.   I plan to use it to quickly find weblogs I don’t <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
have bookmarked on my computer, and to browse for sites <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
that may offer needed information or diversion, as appropriate.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
<\/FONT> <\/DIV>
\n
The myHq<\/EM> compilation will be even more useful, if the list of web-<\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
logs is broken <\/FONT>into subject-matter categories.  Any such list <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
should, I think, be separate from the current list (perhaps further <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
down the page), so the current, broader designations can be kept.<\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n

\n
changes from student to lawyer, or professor to <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
public intellectual and rock star, you should do <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
everyone a favor and let Ed and the guys know.<\/FONT><\/DIV>

Naughty<\/STRONG><\/EM>: I do want to clear up one thing, however.  Editor “Ed”     “devil G”<\/FONT><\/DIV>

is better at some things (e.g.<\/EM>, picking award winners) than others (i.e<\/EM>.,<\/FONT><\/DIV>

characterizing my positions).   In the post<\/A> announcing the myHq<\/EM> page, <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
Ed correctly referred to me as their “favorite curmudgeon,” but he <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
in<\/EM>correctly states that <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n

\n
“<\/FONT>David Giacalone<\/FONT><\/A> thinks lawyers, law professors, and <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n

everyone creating and maintaining similar blogrolls on their <\/FONT><\/DIV>

law blogs.” (emphasis added; but see update<\/EM> below)<\/FONT><\/DIV><\/BLOCKQUOTE>
\n
As editor of f\/k\/a<\/EM>. and in real life, I do have a lot of opinions.  How-<\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
ever, I do not<\/EM> take it upon myself to tell other adults how they <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
should spend their time (at least, not outside a small circle of <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
supervisees, family, and friends).  That is especially true after my <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
being mighti<\/EM><\/FONT>ly annoyed<\/EM>, when others told me a couple months ago<\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
not to waste my time<\/A> <\/FONT>fighting the <\/FONT>use and spread of the word “blawg.”<\/FONT><\/DIV>

starting with the words: “Sorry, it’s not for me” <\/EM>and gave my <\/EM><\/FONT><\/DIV>

reasons.  It is not my intention to tell anyone how to spend their <\/FONT><\/DIV>
