I wrote a blog post on how to work with lawyers at a startup nearly two-and-a-half years ago. This was 2005 when I had no exits under my belt, no blogs … nobody was looking. And I’m delighted to see a bold move by Cooley in getting behind Los Angeles as well. It was very widely read. Startup-focused.

I ran that between 2001 and 2008, and then left to start what has become PublishThis. In the past, companies were just blogging, or just creating content. That's expensive, and takes a lot more people.
