ADVERTISEMENTS

The word "revolutionary" is the 2010 buzzword of the year; about 95% of the press releases we receive at Law Technology News use the word to describe a company's new product, service, or version 6.725x maintenance upgrade of a legacy product.

As far as I'm concerned, there's only one person who can use "revolutionary" with a straight face: Steve Jobs. Unquestionably, the Apple iPad is quickly penetrating even the most Luddite of law firms (and shaking up publishing). In our November issue of LTN, Ross Kodner highlights how firms of all sizes are adopting the tablet; and Latham & Watkin's John Cleaves walks you through how to create an "app." (His firm has already launched its U.S. Book of Jargon app, an interactive glossary of capital markets and banking terms and slang.)

Check out my interview with Cleaves on the February edition of our Law Technology Now podcast.
