BOSTON LOVES LEGAL TALK NETWORK
The human energy bar, Lu Ann Reeb, president of Legal Talk Network, was featured not once, but twice in local Boston media.
Never mind that she's a Red Sox fan, the Law Technology News (aka LTN1) gang loves Lu Ann and her team at LTN2 -- and they partner with us to produce LTN3 -- our Law Technology Now podcasts!
The first article on June 2 appeared in the Boston Business Journal, and also featured Robert J. Ambrogi, who of course produces content for all LTNs (1, 2, & 3) and Law.com (e.g., Legal Blog Watch). Here's the intro to the article, by Lisa van der Pool (and photo, above, is from BBJ):
Bob Ambrogi's weekly podcast, Lawyer2Lawyer, recently hosted a show about the California Supreme Court's decision in favor of gay marriage.
During the broadcast Tara Borelli, a staff attorney at Lambda Legal, which is in favor of same-sex marriage, sparred about the topic with Brian S. Brown, executive director of the National Organization for Marriage, which opposes same-sex marriage.
Ambrogi, a local lawyer who pens several blogs including Legal Blog Watch and Media Law, co-hosts the podcast with Los Angeles-based attorney J. Craig Williams. To date the gay marriage podcast, which was recorded on May 22, has had 1,317 downloads.
"For me, it's something I do entirely for fun," said Ambrogi. "This is marketing in so far as it furthers my reputation as someone on the cutting edge."
The second was on TV, on NECN, sister station to NESN (New England Sports Network), which despite being a Yankees fan, I love, because I absolutely love Jerry Remy, (aka Remdawg) who is celebrating his 20th year as the Sox' TV commentator). (Hey, it's a long story, but I watch NESN all the time to root for the opposing team. He's a terrific commentator, very fair and insightful, but that's another story). I don't know what the NECN acronym stands for -- and couldn't find it on its website, but if I count to 10 some Bostonian will no doubt hit comment and tell us.
ANYWAY... here's the NECN feature about Lu Ann and her team!

Altho I'm an expatriated New Englander I still spend a lot of time visiting my dad. Big Jim is a native New Englander who has been retired for a number of years and fighting various physical ailments. Lime many retired New Englansers, he is apparently unaware that Florida is aprt of the US and so we spend many long hours in the winter watching both NESN and NECN.
New England Cable News (NECN) is the largest regional news network in the country, serving more than 3.6 million homes in over a thousand cities and towns throughout New England.
Launched on March 2, 1992, NECN is a partnership between the Hearst Corporation and Comcast Corporation.
NECN serves a six-state area encompassing Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut and Rhode Island. The network broadcasts from its studios in Newton, Mass, and additionally maintains bureaus in Manchester, New Hampshire; Hartford, Connecticut; Worcester, Massachusetts; Portland, Maine; and Burlington, Vermont.
Jerry Remy of course played second base for the Red Sox for several years and Bill James, in his Historical Abstract rated him as the 100th greatest second baseman of all time as of 2002. More important than his broadcasting, at least from the New Orleans perspective, on game days Remy runs a hot dog stand called "RemDawg's" on Yawkey Way outside of Fenway Park, hence the nickname.

Being a Red Sox fan is a requirement for living in the Boston area! I'm a Dodgers fan myself, but my years living in Boston taught me to root for the Red Sox.
On another note, I'm happy to see that you'll be speaking at the NFPA Tech Conference in Denver!
