The term 'Web 2' was coined by Tim O'Reilly, the great supporter of free software and open source movement himself. What is Web 2? In his own words,

Web 2 is the network as platform, spanning all connected devices; Web 2.0 applications are those that make the most of the intrinsic advantages of that platform: delivering software as a continually-updated service that gets better the more people use it, consuming and remixing data from multiple sources, including individual users, while providing their own data and services in a form that allows remixing by others, creating network effects through an "architecture of participation," and going beyond the page metaphor of Web 1.0 to deliver rich user experiences.

What are web 2 awards? Well, the web 2.0 awards were created by Rand Fishkin, the CEO of the website "seomoz.org" in 2006.

What are the characteristics that comprise a web 2 website? These are the requirements that the website must have to participate in the web 2 award.

• User generated and/or user influenced content
• Applications that use the Web (versus the desktop) as a platform, in innovative ways
• Similar visual design and shared functional languages
• Support trends like blogging, social tagging, wikis, and peer-to-peer sharing
• Include technologies like RSS, AJAX, APIs, RoR etc
• Incorporate Open source/sharable frameworks as user-oriented "create your own" APIs

Take a look at all the great websites that were declared winners of the 2007 web 2.0 Awards. These include over 200 web 2 sites in 41 categories. Just go to http://www.seomoz.org/web2.0

Transcription work is often done by legal secretaries. Legal secretaries work for judges, law firms, hearing officers and also for private investigators. A legal secretary may be responsible for many duties depending on the level of the firm and the assigned work. Though there is a very subtle difference between a legal secretary and a Para legal staff or a legal assistant, most of the duties can overlap between them. Even though legal transcription has become a specialized area of work today, with increased outsourcing of transcription work being sent to transcription professionals, a legal secretary is often depended upon for instant transcription work and document preparation.

Besides doing a lot of administrative work and other legal document management work a legal secretary is also expected to be work independently and assist the legal professional. A short list of the many possible duties and responsibilities of a legal secretary can include,

• Maintaining calendar of court dates
• Correspondence/ mail management
• Hearings transcription
• Schedule deposition
• Overall monitoring/coordination of work
• Trial transcription
• Case management
• Document management for court hearing
• Handle court exhibits
• Travel arrangements
• Payment system management
• Court reporting schedule management
• Legal correspondence transcription
• Statistical report preparation
• Dictation transcription
• Witness management
• Drafting/editing/proofreading
• Document review for citation
• Assist attorney to file documents
• Arranging teleconference

Thus we see that besides being efficient in many areas including legal transcription and document management, a legal secretary must primarily have a good knowledge of all court rules and regulation and also keep contact with the public, federal /state agencies, court officials and others to obtain and manage information related to cases.

While designing a law firm website it is very important to keep in mind certain basic features that should be incorporated and certain common mistakes that should be avoided. These include the following points,

• The website should give the law firm's brand experience for both old and new visitors that come to the website. Every law firm has certain areas of the law that it specializes in and this service should be specifically highlighted. The website must enhance the law firm's image and many clients nowadays often know a law firms primarily by its website.
• The website designer must have good experience in web designing for the legal communities.
• A good content management system must update the website. Content must never be out of date.
• Reduced use of graphics and clip arts
• Must have excellent navigation especially to lawyer bio data and other information that will be of interest to the client.
• The website must be search engine optimized for keywords specific to their area of expertise and also geographical location. Thus if the firm specializes in criminal law say in Michigan, the website must be search engine optimized (SEO) for keywords like "Michigan criminal lawyer" etc. (This will create a good traffic on the law firm's website.)
• It is essential for reputed law firm websites to be impressive and always have an updated online newsletter with white paper etc managed by a good content management system.

Editing and colorization of photographs and films etc has always been a time consuming process and a challenging task. Colorization of films involves adding color to black and white picture images. It is a common process seen in today's digital processing age. During the 60s, many old black and white cartoon movies had been re released after colorization. Colorization during those days was done by tracing of the original black and white frames and then adding color to the new cells. This method was invented by Wilson Markle.

Converting of color into black and white is also very much desired. Also known as film stripping, in this technique the entire film is shot in color and then certain areas of the film is converted into black and white while other regions remain in color. The Oscar winning movie produced and directed by Steven Spielberg had used this technique for making of the famous film "Schindler's List".

Since the early days (1914) a technique that was invented by Max Fleischer is being used to create special effects and color which is called as rotoscaping. This technique was used in the 3 different parts of the film called "Star Wars" to add a glow to a spear like weapon.

Colorization has been an area of intense debate since the early days. New colorization techniques and processes have kept evolving and there have been criticisms. For setting up a standard in colorization, an 'Institute for Colorization' has been created. It can be accessed at http://www.colourisation.net/

Online web based photo/photographs editing services are also in great demand. Digital photo editing software like Adobe Photoshop has revolutionized the industry increasing the possibilities and enhancement on a photograph.

We have been witnessing an IP explosion for the past five years looking at the number of patents filed at the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Corporate and business communities indeed consider intellectual properties like patents and license agreements among their most valuable assets. It is also becoming increasingly essential to safe guard one's intellectual property. There are laws to protect trade secrets and confidential information and we see non-disclosure agreements and job agreements with technical employees becoming quite common.

There has also been an increase in patent infringement law suits. Lawyers and law firms now specialize in patent infringement law suits. It is often a challenging task as IP disputes are usually complex and technically intensive and it takes effort to explain in court the specialized doctrines of IP law. Arbitration is often preferred these days especially when the company feels that litigation is an expensive option that cannot be risked or when they want to avoid the publicity of a law suit. Arbitration in the US is administered through the American Arbitration Association at http://www.adr.org/. Unlike in mediation legal arbitration can also involve depositions, motions practice, and hearings with live testimony. Arbitrations usually end with a decision in favor of one of the parties and an award of damages /relief, with an injunction.

IP arbitration has its advantages and disadvantages. One of the biggest advantages is that in arbitration one can select the person who will preside over the private dispute. In court judges are assigned at random. Among the chief disadvantages of arbitration is the fact that one does not have any meaningful right to appeal an arbitration award.

Being able to screen and select the person or persons presiding over a private dispute is one of the most important benefits of choosing arbitration. In court, the parties are assigned a judge seemingly at random. If the client has the fear that they may be stuck with an incorrect ruling they will hesitate to agree for an arbitration and might choose litigation.

Years ago when we lived in a small apartment, it was right for me and my wife to use the vacuum cleaner and shampoo the carpet ourselves on some weekends. Today we live in a much bigger apartment and prefer to call in the professional carpet cleaning team from the next block to do the job. Not only are they quick, they also do a thorough job. Not that we can't do it ourselves. It would be just tiring. And we sure cant do the job as good as before, nor would we have the time for it. And frankly we still can't afford a full time help at home in New York yet! Well who can?

It is similar with data entry outsourcing.

Those days, offices had full time staff to do all the data entry work and maintain our mailing list. Now we are located in Broadway and all our data entry work (we have lots and lots of data) is done from a remote location, which I believe is in the Philippines. To do the same amount of data entry work that we are at present outsourcing, or rather offshoring, my boss says we will have to employ more than ten full time data entry staff and may have to move to another place. It will cost us four times more than what we are spending on the outsourced project. Thus to us outsourcing data entry means,

• Reduced expenses /saving
• Freedom from hassles
• More time for core activity
• Timely work

Legal consulting in the field of health sector is often referred to LNC (legal nurse consultants). This is because they are very familiar with medical terms and the different medical procedures. There are certified legal nurse consultants (CLNC) who have specialized in this field of legal consultation.

The advantage of having LNC consultants is that they can even give reports that can be studied by the concerned Attorney and are in a better position to intervene with the witness. These nurse consultants are also being effective in interpreting the various policies and procedures of health care. While legal and paralegal professionals are expert in law they are not very much directly into the medical /health sector environment and so a certified nurse is often preferred sometimes even to a doctor for legal consultation. This is because the senior doctors are prone to overlook many details of a case that easily comes under a nurse's scrutiny. More over these nurses can readily accompany the client and can offer testimony during deposition and trial.

Some of the common areas of medical legal consulting include,

• Screening of a case
• Expert witness location
• Organizing medical records
• Preparing exhibits
• Assessing the damage or injury
• Standard of care application

Content development refers to a website's content (written, audio and video content) and the term "optimized" of course is about SEO (search engine optimization). What does it have to do with marketing? Let me explain. (Heard of SEM - Search Engine Marketing?) There are millions of websites and the Internet is ever growing by the minute. How can you assure a global or regional web presence for your product and company? Besides specific people who already know your web address / URL, what are the chances of other web traffic from global locations getting to your website? Is word of mouth business sufficient for you?

Let us say you are selling some products or services and have a website that gives all details and also offers online sales but it is rarely that you get business from the web. It is obvious that one would wish that a maximum number of people do get into the website and a good percentage of the visitors can be converted into business. With millions of pages coming up for every search terms what is the guarantee that your web page will be displayed on the second or third page of the SERP (search engine results page) if not on the first page? It is well known that people only get into the links/websites that are listed on the first few pages and the rest of millions of pages get lesser and lesser traffic. Well there IS a genuine method that CAN bring up your page right on TOP of the search results. You just have to get a good SEO specialist to do work on the website and optimize the content. So what can optimized content do for you? It can,

• Increase your website traffic
• Attract target visitors who are searching for similar/related product/ service

• Help see how your content influenced conversion
• Beat/monitor competition
• Build a good community and enhance customer relations

It is essential to get the services of a good SEO specialist or provider who will write professional SEO content for your website on a fairly regular basis.

In a court of law, sublime importance is always given to the evidence. Assume you have had a major accident and have a litigation going on and want to claim damages from the opposite party. You want to produce documents of evidence that shows that the other driver already had a recent implant in the leg and that this had interfered with his driving which actually led to the accident.

Proving this point is a challenge and you are claiming big money. The jury and others who sit through the proceedings in court will need to understand exactly what had happened during the accident and who is to be blame for the accident. You need to prove that the accident took place due to the negligence of the other party who had been driving even before he was already healed from an earlier accident. You are sure of your stand but how can you make such a subject clear to the jury and other non physicians within a limited time ? The answer is medical graphics/animation and trial graphics support. One can actually show and illustrate the anatomy of the leg and show how the implant prevented the driver from slamming the brakes at the right time.

During the preliminary analysis, one should identify all the facts and details of the people, place, and acts involved besides familiarizing oneself with all the related jargon and understanding of all issues that can be got via research. It also involves identifying legal theories, procedures and knowing about the relief that is being sought. Various secondary sources will have to be referred to including treatises, law reviews and encyclopedias.

While evaluating the legal research one must identify the right legal theories and see if these need to be modified or if new theories have been found that requiring more research. Most importantly one must see as to what is the core legal theory that is being developed. Locating of primary authorities including court opinions/statutes and regulatory law etc can be done using different online and offline secondary sources including various digests and Looseleaf. This is again followed by re-evaluation and legal research / updation and must be repeated till you are done. One of the important things while doing legal research is to always keep in mind the basic Blackletter rules.
