Fifteen years ago, on her first day as editor-in-chief of Law Technology News , Monica Bay had a problem. She took over just as the September issue was about to go to press, and a scheduled column was AWOL, leaving a hole in the magazine that needed to be filled on short order.
We knew each other through the American Bar Association’s Law Practice Management section, when she was a law student and then an editor at ALM’s The Recorder newspaper. She called me and asked if I could write an article, within hours, addressing any internet topic that would be helpful to LTN readers. I was happy to oblige. I filled that hole and I’ve been filling it ever since.
We dubbed the column Web Watch and there has been plenty to observe over the years. Now, I have made the difficult decision to retire the column. This will be the last, although I will continue to contribute to LTN in other ways.
