A primary advantage\u00a0 of weblogs is the information management that it gives us, including the easy <\/font>ability to decide if a post is worth perusal, to quote a passage in assent or\u00a0 <\/font>dissent, or to find it quickly at a later time.\u00a0 Podcasting might nurture a bit of <\/font>camaraderie, but facilitating the use and organization of information are not its <\/font>forte.\u00a0 For me, information is far better processed and preserved through written <\/em><\/font>text.<\/em><\/font><\/font><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
<\/p>\n
Well, it was silly of me to have so little faith in the legal self-help pioneers<\/a> at Nolo.com, who clearly know how to make information effective and accessible.\u00a0 You see, since January 2006, Nolo has made transcripts available for each of its Plain English podcasts, at the dedicated Nolo Podcast<\/em> transcript weblog<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0— usually on the same day\u00a0a podcast is\u00a0originally released (or the next business day).\u00a0 Belated, but heartfelt thanks, Nolo!\u00a0\u00a0 <\/font><\/div>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
\"writing\"\u00a0 So, although yesterday’s new Nolo.com podcast, “Is it Harder to Sell a Retail or a Service Business?<\/a>,” sounds<\/em> quite interesting, I’m going to check with the\u00a0Nolo Podcast<\/em> weblog<\/a>\u00a0tomorow, to see if this interview with Fred Steingold has been posted for eyeball consumption.<\/font><\/div>\n

p.s<\/strong>. Our Referers page says that someone Googled nolo press podcast<\/a><\/font>\u00a0this morning, and the #2 result was shlep<\/em>‘s Sept. 12. posting<\/a> about the Law\u00a0in Plain English podcast series.\u00a0\u00a0 Yesterday, we were the third result, out of 12 million, for the Google query self representation in a court of law>, and the 1st out of 15 million results, for the query document assembly online<\/a>.\u00a0Thanks to all those who have linked to us and helped achieve such good search engine results so early in shlep<\/em>‘s existence.\u00a0 Late-night update<\/em>:\u00a0 More thanks to Kevin Heller at TechLawAdvisor<\/a><\/em>, for pointing to two of our posts, and featuring shlep<\/em> as Today’s New Blawg in his excellent editon of Blawg Review<\/a><\/em> #79.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
