Bruce Carton's 10 "Go-To" Law Blogs in 2011

This is the second year Legal Blog Watch's Bruce Carton has identified his 10 "Most-Watched" legal blogs. Carton writes "not all legal blogs are created (and maintained) equal, and some always grow to be favorites of mine during the year." Here's last year and this year's list. His blog posts, linked below, include video presentations about each annual list and provide links to each blog. [JH]

Indeed "not all legal blogs are created (and maintained) equal," as Carton writes. I won't go into my personal list of blogs that dropped off my favorite RSS feeds list this year because this has become a fairly common occurrence since 2008. They come, they go. It takes one hellva lot of work to maintain a blog that regularly publishes interesting posts and Dennis Kennedy has hit the nail on the head about the now established trend away from blogs to other social media platforms, some good, some not so good.
