Resources for Law Students
Here’s a list of resources that are helpful for learning law of computers, technology and internet.
Law and Technology News
Media outlets with good and dedicated coverage of technology law include:
- Ars Technica
- TechCrunch
- Techdirt
- The Verge
- Wired
- Slashdot
- BuzzFeed – Tech
- CyberScoop
- Engadget
- Slate- Technology

Productivity Software.
- Word Processing: You have to use Microsoft Word, even if you are a Mac person (like me). Word has all the features, and most people use it.
- Mindmapping/Outlining: I use XMind Zen.
- Dictation software: Dragon dictate is the best dictation software (at the moment), but only runs on Windows. If you are a Mac-person (like me), you have to run a virtual machine, Windows operating system. I use Parallels and run Windows. Many times, I run Word, XMind, and Dragon using Parallels.
- Design: Adobe’s products are amazing. There many be better alternatives out there, but as a whole you can not beat Adobe’s products. I use Adobe’s Premier, Elements, inDesign, Photoshop, Captivate, Acrobat, Sign, amongst others.
Podcasts
- Good Code is a podcast that constantly covers relevant topics..
