Legal technology guru Dennis Kennedy has written a positive review about LawyerLinks, a new legal research tool that could prove useful for corporate counsel:

"Eric Korb of LawyerLinks gave me the grand tour of the LawyerLinks corporate legal research tool recently and I was quite impressed.

While many people believe that I’m interested only in the newest, coolest, most cutting-edge technology, the truth is that I’m most interested in technologies that are simple, easy to use and help me accomplish things better. When that happens with cool, new technology (the leading example today is the whole are known as Web 2.0), it’s a bonus for me.

So, a few minutes into the demo of LawyerLinks, I’m really digging the service and asking tons of questions and saying "that’s right" and "that’s cool." It was cool because it was simple.

And, it’s a simple idea. Imagine the ideal "encyclopedia" for your area of law practice. It would be fully hyperlinked, updated by knowledgeable lawyers, organized by people who understand the practice and easy to move through. IN my case, I also want to get away from the Boolean search stuff and be able to move through the material in a logical, structured way."
