I haven’t yet blogged about law.librarians, the newest experiment in group blogging from an international crew of law librarians, mostly, I think, because I’ve been spending so much time there!
It’s turning out to be a great community and resouce for everyone involved. Law.librarians is being used to share resources and links, both serious and not-so-serious, as well as becoming a place to ask community opinion on a question, to try and find a resources or just to chat with like-minded people.
As much as I like and enjoy using Twitter, I’m finding the ability to comment, and the better signal-to-noise ratio of law.librarians to be very appealing. If you haven’t gone to check it out yet, do drop by and have a look!

Totally agree that law.librarians is a lot more focussed than Twitter, which I have more or less given up on now!

I find that I’m still using Twitter a bit, but more for ‘woe, today is being very long, and I want to go the the pub’ type use, rather than what’s going on on law.librarians.
I enjoy the slightly more conversational edge of Twitter, and the different people I interact with there, but I think the fact that law.librarians has more of a purpose makes it easier to engage with.
