Musings on law, tech, chess & other topics by a geek

I will be speaking at this years ATJ Conference in Wenatchee on June 5th. Here is the panel I am on : Technology Power Tools for Justice

Development and advances in technology have provided the justice system with transformative tools that can effectively, efficiently and economically make available both information and services to vast numbers of people almost anywhere in minutes. These tools can serve and empower people who have been powerless, excluded, underserved – and do so in practical ways with concrete effects. These tools can also enable and make real diversity in the people we serve, inclusiveness in the justice system and those who govern and work in it, and enable intergenerational communication and cooperation and leadership development at all levels. Focused on understanding how to use technology to serve our fundamental values and deliver meaningful justice in the daily lives of all people, we will demonstrate important tools and opportunities available now, and some exciting future directions.

We are likely to cover a lot of accessibility tools along with some other cutting edge projects. My hope is to include CC, twitter, mobile access, social media and Diaspora in the conversation.
