Legal Blogs: The Debate

I have been reading the debate on how many legal blogs there are in the blogosphere. There has been some entries on this debate on the blogs of Robert Ambrogi, Tom Mighell (Dallas attorney and past DALL speaker), and Kevin O'Keefe.

The National Law Journal says there is about 600 blogs, Robert and Tom are guessing the blog numbers are between 1,000-1,500 and Kevin's guess is over 2,000. In this mix of legal blogs, let's count the law librarian blogs...105.

If you are interested, you can read the entries:
