Tips & Tricks: e-Discovery Calculator

2 Comments

Adding machineThis is cool!  That’s about all I can say about the JurInnov Electronic Discovery Calculator.  Obviously, little explanation is necessary as to what it does.

To me, whether or not you may rely on this tool to accurately estimate costs isn’t really the point.  Anything that gets the ‘conversation’ started – or fills in elements you may not have considered – is a good thing.

I expect that some of you who try this calculator, after
you see some of the fields, will say, “I didn’t know that was part of
e-Discovery!”.  If it accomplishes that goal alone, it’s worth a look.

Tips & Tricks: Internet Archive: Wayback Machine

I’m starting a new ‘Tips & Tricks‘ category today.
Whenever I come across a resource that I think will be useful to my readers, I’ll post it.

WabacFirst things first…many of you will recognize Mr. Peabody and His Boy Sherman, who were part of the Rocky & Bullwinkle Show.

Mr. Peabody was the purveyor of the original ‘WABAC Machine’, which made it possible for he and Sherman to go back in time and visit the past.

Now, Internet Archive has the ‘Wayback Machine‘, which makes it possible for us to do the same.

To put it in their own words, the Wayback Machine allows us to “browse through 85 billion web pages archived from 1996 to a few months ago”.

This has enormous value to those of us who do forensic e-discovery.  Give it a try and I think you’ll agree.

Quite!
