Sitting for two hours in the dentist's chair this morning for part 3 of 4 of a root canal treatment, I took the opportunity of various pauses (wait five minutes for the local anaesthetic to take effect; wait for six minutes for the post to set; wait for six minutes for the crown impression mould to set; and so on) to catch up on some blog and email reading using my new iPhone. (Aside: I've used iPaqs, Blackberries, and Treos. The iPhone simply buries them all.)

Some interesting blogging stuff over at Real Lawyers Have Blogs. In particular, this sample blog policy could be useful. And, the "Related Posts" at the bottom of that article are good starting points for further browsing.

Ow. Have to go. Local is now wearing off. Where did I put those painkillers...

"Don't let your employees blog. And if they do anyway, don't admit it to anyone. And make sure they post a disclaimer. Otherwise, one of them will give away all your company secrets; another will commit libel and drop you in a lawsuit; and if you're really unlucky, and you're not an American, you'll end up in G'tmo. And your skin will turn green."

OK, that maybe exaggerates the warnings I got when looking into the idea of corporate blogging, but not by much. Here, however, is what I did ponder as I discussed the pros and cons of blogging with one of Verilab's consultants, JL Gray, author of Cool Verification.
