Perhaps in yet another affirmative answer to the "is there really any value in weblogs" question, check out Rick Borstein"s
Acrobat for Legal Professionals weblog.
In part due to the movement of some of the court systems to Adobe standards for everything from e-Filing to simply filling out forms, many legal professionals today need to learn how to use Adobe products, particularly the Acrobat family. Indeed, I receive questions from attorneys on the subject of Acrobat features and functions almost every single week. My sense is (and I include myself in this group) most of us don"t even begin to know the feature set in Acrobat Standard and Professional, let alone take advantage of it in our daily work.
With this in mind, don"t overlook Borstein"s weblog. I have seen him in demonstrations and he knows the product backwards and forwards. And, importantly, he knows the product in the context of legal practice (he is Adobe"s Business Development Manager specializing in the Acrobat-Legal Market, in fact).
As you will from the comments posted on his site, I am not alone in finding his weblog a valuable resource. And, perhaps saving the best for last, Borstein often replies to comments with tips, tricks and, yes, answers. In effect, through his weblog, you are getting free access to a literal expert on Adobe Acrobat for Legal. In return, I am sure Adobe loves getting the feedback from and interaction with, its customers. Seems like a win-win to me.
But, don"t take my word for it. Visit or Subscribe today and see for yourself.
