A Few Useful Internet & Tech Law Twitter Feeds
Twitter is a micro-blogging service where users post short updates called “tweets” about whatever is on their minds. I’ve been using Twitter for just over a month now. I’ve found it to be useful not only for keeping up-to-date with friends and associates, but also for getting quick updates about interesting technology law articles from around the Web.
Not surprisingly, three of the most useful of these feeds are maintained by my friend Michael Scott of The Singularity Law Blog, who goes by the handle @LawProf on Twitter. His first feed, @CopyrightLaw, features broad coverage of copyright issues with an emphasis on new media. His second feed, @InternetLaw, provides coverage of Internet Law news scoured from sources like Slashdot, Ars Technica, TechDirt, and many others. One of Michael’s talents here is his ability to filter the news for us, picking out the most interesting and well-written stories to save us time. His third feed is called @PrivacyLaw and it specifically focuses on privacy on the Internet. I follow all three of Michael’s tech law feeds and I find them useful.
In addition to Michael Scott, there are also a few other legal bloggers and pundits who have begun using Twitter to provide occasional insights. Harvard Law Professor and author Jonathan Zittrain has a feed at @zittrain although his updates are somewhat sporadic, and fellow blogger/podcaster Denise Howell has her own feed at @dhowell that can be interesting at times.
Of course, I also have my own feed at @JoshKagan where I post updates regularly.
Do you have a favorite feed that should be on this list? Tell me about it by adding a comment below!
