We write a fair amount about technology here at Corporate Counsel. We run a monthly column dedicated to how in-house counsel leverage it to do their jobs. We send out an e-newsletter featuring articles on technology that appear on CorpCounsel.com. It’s an area of intense interest for our readers, whether it’s personal use (Android phone or iPhone? Can you use Word on an iPad?) or liability issues surrounding bring-your- own-device practices.

We also frequently write about e-discovery—sifting through mountains of data to find the documents you’re looking for. In the old days, attorneys would just sit in a room with big boxes full of documents. Later, they scanned computer files, and probably wrecked their eyesight in the process. More recently, robots have been doing the scanning in ways more sophisticated than simple keyword searches. There are two factors driving these advances: the need to rein in costs while increasing accuracy, and ramping up the speed.
