As more
attorneys wish to take advantage of
the Internet to market their services, more legal articles are being made
available over the World Wide Web. In fact, if you know where to find them,
these articles can save many hours of legal research. Unfortunately, there
is currently
no digest of legal articles on the Internet to aid you in your search.
Search engines which include the entire World Wide Web are often too
inclusive when searching for legal analysis on a computer or Internet related
topic. As a result, this annotated guide to selected legal articles was created.
If you would like to suggest an addition to this list, please e-mail me
at webmaster@bitlaw.com. You
may also contact me if you would like me to remove a link from this page.
