NO. 500: TWITTERVIEW WITH LANCE GODARD OF 22 TWEETS.

Welcome to a “twitterview” (interview conducted live on Twitter) featuring Lance Godard, host of the blog 22 Tweets (@22Twts). Mr. Godard was interviewed by Cliff Tuttle of Pittsburgh Legal Back Talk (PittsburghLegal)
 on August 24, 2010 to celebrate its 500th post.

499: PLBT Celebrates its 500th Post by Interviewing Lance Godard, host of 22 Tweets!

I wanted to do something unique and memorable for post number 500, which is coming up next. So, I asked Lance Godard, who interviews lawyers who tweet on one of my favorite websites, 22 Tweets, for an interview. That is, me interviewing him on my blog, Pittsburgh Legal Back Talk.

Second Anniversary of Pittsburgh Legal Back Talk!

On July 7, 2008 the first post on Pittsburgh Legal Back Talk appeared. You can read it by clicking “About PLBT” in the left margin. Now, approaching 500 posts, I think this blog has proven that it it has the stuff to last.

500, 501, 502

Coming up on Two Years.

In a little over a month, July 7, PLBT will have its second anniversary. We will also be approaching post number 500 — 448 posts have been published to date. We made it to 300 on August 25, 2009. Lets see whether we can put out 51 worthwhile posts in the next 37 days and hit 500 by July 7. That’s ten a week.

#bonusgate tweets away.

Chances are, though, that most judges will follow the lead of Westmoreland County and ban tweeting from the courtroom, especially during the solemn moments when the jury announces the verdict.

If we never again see a tweetfest in court during the jury verdict, we saw it tonight.

Look Who is Following Posts on Common Pleas Court.

In the past I have often used the words “Common Pleas Court”. Given the subject matter of this blog, I can’t avoid it. But something has happened on yesterday’s post that is interesting and even surprising. This blog started getting ping backs from Common Pleas Courts around the country, lots of them.

Happiness can be purchased a la carte. It isn’t an all or nothing proposition. It is a state of mind, a transcendental state of mind. It is so close that any of us can reach out to easily touch it. All we need to do is be aware, be mindful. It does not even require an absence of pain and suffering. Victor Frankel observed people experiencing happiness in a concentration camp.
