* The move to have a gentleman’s agreement against anonymous internet commenting seems to be gaining steam. Thoughts? We encourage people who want to share their opinions to use avatars of respected character actors or former NBA players. [What About Clients?]
* Senator John Cornyn is getting ready for the Sotomayor confirmation hearings next week. Who’s bringing the popcorn? [U.S. Senator John Cornyn]
* Is Richard Posner right that news aggregation websites such as the Huffington Post siphon traffic from mainstream media sources? One blogger looks at just how much traffic the Huffington Post is able to throw around. [Bloggasm]
* I was on Fox Business today, talking about the University of Miami law school deferral program — and suggesting that prospective Minnesota law students should get slapped in the head. Luckily, my own head did not roll off of my body. [Fox Business]
* Westlaw cares about the environment. [Legal Writing Prof Blog]
* A Courtoon caption contest. I’ll bite. The picture looks like a laid off lawyer offering up his first-born child in order to pay off his law school debts. You know, something that is entirely reasonable given the economy. [Courtoons]
* Apparently, Janet from Three’s Company wants to drive as clumsily as Jack Tripper. [Popsquire]
