JD Scoop

Today on the Web, your audience has an audience of its own.

We hear that all the time, but what does it mean, exactly?

On JD Supra, it means that the legal advisories, blog posts, and articles published daily by lawyers and law firms have a chance to be seen (and shared) by new and old media outlets keen to provide useful information to their own readers.

We see extraordinary diversity in such media pickup for our contributor clients. New media, old media, niche professional associations, corporate blogs, industry resources ... all of these and others share legal news on JD Supra with their active readers. Here's a look at recent examples:

My kids are happy to have me home, I brought them chocolate frogs from Dylan's Candy Bar (think: Harry Potter). My bags were stuffed but I did manage to bring back a little something for everyone. For you? Three videos. Enjoy>>
