Vendors – A Dying Breed? Thoughts from IPRO Innovations
I always enjoy speaking at the IPRO Innovations conferences. They are a good mix of IPRO channel partners and corporate/firm customers, which makes for an excellent market sampling without the crazy crowds or sales intensity of Legal Tech. The IPRO team knows how to create a fun, relaxing atmosphere with enough real content to keep attendees engaged. You may have noticed my deliberate use of the slightly pejorative term “vendors” in my headline. I normally prefer ‘service providers’ to call out the ‘service’ and expertise that I hope is part of every eDiscovery project. ‘Vendor’ has always reminded me of a bulk commodity seller, think of Walmart selling eDiscovery.

The Evolving Trends of Social Media eDiscovery: Tidbits from the Masters Series 2012 in San Francisco
The Masters Series completed its latest installment last week in San Francisco. Its purpose is to shorten the divide between the recent technological advances in eDiscovery, data protection, records management, and other relevant areas. Although various topics involved eDiscovery, such as procurement, predictive coding, IP litigation, and data privacy, this article focuses on the knowledge shared in the realm of social media (“SM”). The most astonishing SM revelation was the vast digital footprint left behind by our mobile devices and what can happen to this data during acquisitions of the companies tracking this information. Neal Lawson of iDiscovery Solutions, Inc. opened up the presentation with this hypothetical scenario: Neal’s wife wanted him to use a Whole Foods‘ Groupon to purchase some groceries, He then checked traffic and parking conditions using a mobile app on his mobile device, He checked-in [...]

ACEDS Annual Conference
The Association of E-Discovery Specialists held its second annual conference last week in Hollywood, Fla. Approximately 450 people attended the three-day conference. Both vendors and attendees were enthusiastic about certification programs as one way to measure e-discovery competence and dedication to this field. There are plenty of available offerings: In addition to ACEDS’ courses, the Organization of Legal Professionals also offers a course, and vendor Kroll Ontrack offers an advanced certification course. Other educational courses (not necessarily for certification) are available from the Georgetown Law Center, Ralph Losey (E-discovery Team Training course), the Association of Litigation Support Professional, and Michael Arkfeld’s Online E-Discovery and Digital Evidence Course. Although questions still remain on how best to train and measure competence, it appears that we have moved beyond the early adopters stage — and the initial question on whether or not certification courses are a viable option.
