A good lawyer understands the importance and value of due diligence. OnLine Courses has compiled a list of 100 blog posts they believe you should read before going to law school. Topics include: getting in; getting started; paying for school; getting a job; getting through law school; making the most of the education offered; getting the skinny from those who have gone before; test taking; and lawyers, the law, career paths and opportunities.

I guess calling this list cursory would be an understatement and calling it comprehensive would be overstating the obvious!

Oh yes I most certainly do grapple with typing on the iPhone. So here is another option for improving the experience: TextExpander Touch allows you to save sections of text in a notes-like document for quick, repetitive insertion into email or other docs. While the lack of an autocorrect function makes it difficult to use as a drafting device, it works well as a macro-like tool for inserting addresses or frequently used passages, such as confidentiality clauses or other similar standard boilerplate, with a few keystrokes. It also interfaces with some iPhone twitter apps.
