Ediscovery 101 Class 3: Bits, Bytes, and the Building Blocks of ESI Plus Hot Litigation Trends

By Kathryn Hughes | Tuesday, December 18, 2012

Originally published in the March 26, 2012 issue of LitigationWorld: If the Mesopotamians had their way, we'd have a $60 and $120 bill. Fortunately, the Greeks and Egyptians intervened to give us our Base 10 math system. However, computers use a different math system. In this issue of LitigationWorld ediscovery consultant Tom O'Connor continues with his third Ediscovery 101 installment, discussing how computers understand our input. These "bits" and "bytes" represent the building blocks of electronically stored information so it's essential to understand how they work when working with electronic evidence. Also, don't miss the LitigationWorld Pick of the Week for hot technology trends in litigation.

TL Research Buyer's Guide to Outlook Add-Ons for Law Firms

By Neil J. Squillante | Monday, March 12, 2012

Coming today to TL Research: Most law firms use Microsoft Outlook. But Outlook by itself fails to meet the unique needs of lawyers. Realizing that it cannot add features solely for specialized markets like law practice, Microsoft cleverly made Outlook extensible, resulting in a large after market of add-ons. As with any marketplace, the most difficult task lies in finding the add-ons you need. In this TL Research report, Outlook user and lawyer Edward Zohn describes and links to 44 carefully selected Outlook add-ons organized into six categories. Download your free copy of TL Research Buyer's Guide to Outlook Add-Ons for Law Firms now.
