Vote for Slaw in ABA’s Top 100 Blawgs

One of the sites Omar contribute to, Slaw.ca, has been nominated by the American Bar Association (ABA) as one of the Top 100 list, “by lawyers, for lawyers, as chosen by the editors of the ABA Journal,”

Moderated by Simon Fodden, professor emeritus at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto, Slaw was start­ed largely for the legal research and IT community in Canada, but it may soon transcend its tech designa­tion. The name Slaw was chosen in deference to Salon and Slate and “the notion that a cooperative weblog with many contributors is bound to consist of a great many (nutritious) small pieces in rather a jumble.” Despite its Canadian emphasis, Slaw’s topics are techno­-logi­cally universal and insightful.

Slaw has been Omar’s new home since moving there from Law is Cool, though he does frequent his hold haunt quite regularly.

Although the site is currently a front-runner in the process, you can help secure the win by voting here.

Voting ends Jan. 2, 2009.
