Shinyung Oh, Welcome to the Blogosphere!
Based on how her farewell email resonated throughout the blogosphere (and beyond), it would seem that former Paul Hastings associate Shinyung Oh has a knack for writing. The reactions to her dramatic, heartfelt goodbye email ranged from support and sympathy to outrage and anger. But whether readers agreed or disagreed with Shinyung Oh, clearly they were engaged by her story. Her writing struck a nerve.
