Attorney Mike Mintz has worked for LexisNexis for almost a decade and currently serves as the Community Manager for Martindale-Hubbell Connected, a professional networking site for lawyers. Mintz also runs an interesting tech blog called Mintz's Words and another blog that he hopes to turn into a book called Lurkers Anonymous. He used to work here in the U.S., but he and his family recently moved to Israel where he telecommutes with LexisNexis, so as you can imagine he makes extensive use of technology. He is also an avid iPhone user.
In early 2010, Mintz started a series of video interviews called Connected Pulse that appear on the Martindale-Hubbell YouTube channel. Past installments of Connected Pulse have included interviews with e-discovery expert and legal blogger Tom Mighell of Fios, Law Professor Jim Carey at Cooley Law School (who has written about social media as it applies to regulated financial industries), law firm business development guru Larry Bodine, and legal technology maven Dennis Kennedy. The videos are edited video Skype or iChat conversations to which Mintz adds lots of pop-up graphics to make the videos more interesting and informative. They are nicely done.
A few weeks ago, Mintz interviewed me on various iPhone and related topics for Connected Pulse, and as a result I am now featured in the latest Connected Pulse video. If you want to see and hear me speak about the iPhone instead of just reading my words in black and white on this blog, I've embedded the video here:
As I mentioned at the end of this video, I hope that many of you make plans to attend the ABA TECHSHOW next month where Reid Trautz and I will discuss 60 iPhone Apps in 60 Minutes on Thursday, March 25th and Ben Stevens and I will discuss iPhone Tips for Lawyers on Saturday morning, March 27th. It will be a great opportunity for all of us to share our experiences on using the iPhone.
