ABA Journal's Legal Rebels Project

As a "blawg" that is featured in the ABA Journal's blawg roll, I ocasionally receive emails from them about different projects they are working on. Below is an email I received from them about an interesting project they are currently working on -- Legal Rebels.

Dear blawgger,

We thought you and your blawg's readers would be interested in the ABA Journal's Legal Rebels project, which launches today.

Over the course of the next three months, we'll be profiling 50 of the profession's leading innovators at www.legalrebels.com . The first seven profiles, along with videos and audio slideshows that illustrate the changes they're trying to make in the practice of law, are now online. We'll be adding at least three new profiles to the site every week until Thanksgiving.

You can also directly participate in the project:

Sign (www.legalrebels.com/manifesto) the Rebels Manifesto, which was written by lawyers nationwide.

Ride shotgun (www.legalrebels.com/tour) our two-week Rebels Tour, kicking off Sept. 14.

Check out (www.legalrebels.com/buzz) what lawyers are saying about the Rebels.

Nominate (www.legalrebels.com/nominate) someone you think we should profile.

We think of this project more as a journey than as a destination--a search for the future of the practice of law in America. We hope you and your readers will come along for the ride.
