But he is well-known in my professional circles as an engaging presenter and writer on topics relating to the future of law, the future of the delivery of legal services and other changes in the legal profession. (Yes, he is one of those "scary" futurist writers.) Jordan stayed busy during his bogging hiatus as he noted in his return to blogging announcement.

Welcome to the machine….
