About
The Common Scold



The Common Scold is named after a cause of action that originated in Pilgrim days, when meddlesome, argumentative, opinionated women who displeased the Puritan elders were punished by a brisk dunk in the local pond. Believe it or not, the tort lasted until 1972, when State v. Palendrano, 120 N.J. Super. 336, 293 A.2d 747 (N.J.Super.L., Jul 13, 1972) pretty much put it to rest. But the thought of those feisty women, not afraid of a little cold water, has always cheered me up and inspired me. I first used the moniker as the name of my humor column at the University of San Francisco School of Law many moons ago, and revive it now for this blawg!

Your Chance to Rate the Technology Vendors

Techrage Frustrated with your legal technology? Elated? Share your experience and help your peers pick the best technology vendors. The second annual ALM Technology Vendor Satisfaction Survey is underway, via a simple online survey. Conducted by our "Legal Intelligence" research unit, the survey asks questions about technology products and servcies, such as software and web-based offerings that target law firms and law departments.

There are six categories: research libraries, e-discovery and compliance, litigation support, mobile lawyering, and office technology. The deadline to participate is April 8, 2001. Take the survey here, learn more about it here

Participants will receive a brief analysis of the results; full results will be available for purchase for $950 (participants get a 15% discount). The results also determine the 2011 LTN Vendor Awards, so let your voice be heard!

Here's my analysis of the inaugural 2010 survey, "Help Please!," which confirmed (by a whopping 77% of respondents) that the number one criteria for choosing a vendor is customer service. More than anything else, we all want quick responses and prompt resolutions to technology problems.

What will emerge as the top issues of 2011? We're looking forward to hearing from you!
