Anne Lee Gibson has an interesting blog post about providing intelligence to a firm interested in expanding to the Bay Area in California here: http://lawfirmci.blogspot.com/2008/09/its-hard-to-accept-intelligence-that.html, and how that expansion u…

- Hi, Jocelyn. Thank you for your kind words. I guessed (even before I looked on my blog to see what I'd written on September 22) that you were talking about the "it's hard to accept intelligence that breaks your heart" post. Yes, that's very hard to do -- and it's really been a hard last few months for the SF legal community.
Perhaps contrary to what some have posted, I'm aware of at least 40 (perhaps more?) law firms that are developing some interesting internal CI functions, through a variety of structures. Although this isn't a time of expansion for law firms, I see firms routing resources into CI in an effort to find early mover and execution benefits.
There are many good CI resources out here. Use them all. Feel free to call if you just want to run any of your ideas up the flagpole. I'll be happy to give you my reactions, for what they're worth. Accept my very best wishes in your endeavors.

I left a message for you regarding CI in law Firms at the bottom of the page in case you didn't see it - I replied to a reply rather than to you by accident and don't want to repost. In any event, drop me a line if you want to chat more specifically, I've been working in CI in law firms in Canada for over 5 years - at two of the countries most successful firms. Email if you want and we can set up a time to chat.
Cheers,
Z

Walter,
I can answer this one. Ok, first "big data" players usually means HP, Oracle, SAP, IBM. These firms are extraordinarily good at handling structured data (ie numbers) in relational databases, but they don't deal well with unstructured data,…
Oh, they are doing CI, lots of it, but they call it other things, like Data mining e.g. They solve many of the same problems but from an engineering perspective

I've been turning this one over and can't find a satisfactory explanation.
Why don't we see more 'big data' players doing CI consulting. It seems to me that companies like Google, with absurdly comprehensive environmental data, doing more to move…
Hey Eric,
Very nice, I really like your critical dissection of the author's convoluted and ultimately flawed, thought process which you laid out very articulately. Precisely right, what exactly is the difference here? The issue of direct vs indirec…

Bill, I'm having trouble imagining you being pilloried for posting jobs during a global recession. I hope we have lots of trouble of this sort coming!
So, to take this author's point:
Gathering, analyzing and disseminating information sponsored by a major media source financed directly by a combination of pharma, oil, and automotive companies: ethically honorable.
