It is also a very efficient way of keeping track of developments within the courts. A number of courts, both state and federal, are making RSS feeds available on their websites. They often make a good substitute for a WestLaw or Lexis alert. Here is a list of RSS feeds that may be of interest to SCU law students. Mon, 09 Mar 2009 18:03:00 GMT http://law.scu.edu/blog/heafeyheadnotes/new-technology-i-love-dropbox.cfm Normally, we use this blog to discuss developments within the law and issues in legal research. Occasionally, a new web technology is introduced that we just have to share with the students at SCU. The new synchronization tool, DropBox, is one of those technologies. DropBox is a way to keep files in sync between multiple computers. It is an excellent way of keeping your notes, papers, and projects organized (and backed up!) on both your laptop and home computer.

They are often given to member attorneys as a benefit of bar membership. Although they lack the editorial content provided by WestLaw and Lexis, they do offer a substantial amount of case law from both the state and federal courts. The blog, Law Technology, offers a review of these two products. Wed, 08 Jul 2009 17:59:00 GMT http://law.scu.edu/blog/heafeyheadnotes/how-well-is-onenote-working-for-you.cfm I frequently talk to law students about how they organize their class notes, case briefs, and outlines throughout the semester. I'm always amazed to see the different ways in which law students organize their coursework. Some students seem to work entirely on paper and take sparse notes but write feverishly in their casebooks. Other students meticulously outline everything and write nothing in their casebooks.

This may be a great resource for developing a legislative history for recent Congressional actions. The archive is searchable and includes a RSS feed for recent additions.
