The newswire is designed to focus on legal news and law blogs.

The insitelaw blog
There is a blog to allow participation. Some of the posts on the newswire will be repeated on the blog - to promote comment and the daily podcast will also be published on the blog daily as well as on the newswire.

Links to content rich blogs from the US and UK will follow - and bloggers who wish to draw my attention to a particular post on their blog are very welcome to email me and I shall include a link in this newswire.
