In September, the ABA's Commission on Ethics 20/20 released a couple of issues papers concerning lawyers' use of technology. One paper addressed confidentiality-related issues, and the other paper addressed some of the ethics issues associated with lawyers' use of social media for advertising and marketing purposes. (I am one of the Commission's reporters and am working with the Commission's Technology Working Group on the issues raised in these papers.)
In order to get the word out about the papers and to correct some misunderstandings about them, I worked with the ABA and my law school to create a podcast (download it here), which summarizes some of the Commission's work in this area.
Comments are due by December 15 and should be directed to Natalia Vera.
