Who's top of the law blog pops?
It's growing in popularity, but who's top of the
law blog pops?

News - Law bloggers have increased for many
commentators with more grey-haired baby boomers getting on
board the business previously occupied largely by news geeks
and acne-scarred techos and gamers who blog between illegal
music downloads and bad food. So far as legal bloggers are
concerned, there has been an encouraging tendency for senior
lawyers to enter the fray.
I’ve mentioned Dr Jim Farmer with his new blog which, although not ranking heavily yet will undoubtedly hit its straps. So too is Kensington Swan’s Bryan Gundersen. However, based on just boring internet metrics, like page rank and Alexa rankings, who are the current top law bloggers?
1. Stephen Franks with his
eclectic blog,
2. Stephen Price, with his Media Journal,
3. Otago University lecturer Andrew Geddis, who blogs as
part of the larger Pundit blog, which skews the stats in his
favour but his page nonetheless receives high popularity,
4. Victoria University’s Dean Knight and
5.
Lowndes Jordan’s LawGeek blog, by Rich Shera.
More firms are attaching blogs to their sites, such as Whangarei’s Webb Ross, who keep a useful, updated blog relating to general law matters, and The Family Lawyer, from Selina Trigg at the large, Hamilton-based family law practice of Auckland’s Family Law Results firm.
