It has been two weeks since I have done a GG Grab, which has meant that there were 1000+ items for me to sort through in Google Reader. So this week’s structure will be slightly different to account for the content.
I apologise if I’ve taken a link without sourcing it – I don’t think I [...]

Typography for Lawyers
This find gets to go first because it is an excellent, excellent resource. It is something that all law students and in my (respectful) opinion, all legal professionals, should take a good look at. I’m afraid I don’t quite remember who passed this onto me (sorry!) so I will claim it as my [...]

This post can be ignored by our RSS readers.
In an attempt to plug GG to a wider audience, we will be signing up to the Technorati blogging network. To prove that we are who we say we are, they require that we make a post linking our Technorati Profile.

Ask Grad Girl #1 – Sans Halo
Hi Grad Girl,
I’m in my final year of my law degree and I’m a bit scared about what is going to happen next year. I’ve been applying for clerkships and putting my name and resume out there but it looks like the current law firms are struggling to keep the staff they’ve got – and [...]

3 Geeks Test Crowdsourcing
Crowdsourcing is a new twist on the established concept of outsourcing. Essentially, companies use the internet to outosource their work to ‘crowds’ (that is, an anonymous group of people) and use that output in part of a bigger, usually internal, project.

Swine Flu Will End All Life As We Know It.
The Good News – We have something to talk about that isn’t the depressing global financial crisis.
The Bad News – A global flu pandemic is racing across the globe. Did you ever see that movie 28 Days Later? Yeah … yeah …

IceTV Beats Channel Nine in the High Court
You might remember this case from late last year, when we referred to it in our Tuesday Transcript section. Well the case is now over and Ice TV has emerged victorious (Note, I’m taking the high road and not making any ‘icy’ or ‘frost’ [...]
