I’ve created a similar one here http://klout.com/#/GavWard/list/legal-connections?n=tw&v=list_page_new_share . Althought this is a straight import of one of my legal lists containing around 500 Twegals, created by Formulists, it’s impressive the way that Klout manages to rank these according to how much Klout they have – again, thanks to Mike for pointing this.

Hope this is useful. Also, I’m looking forward to the Tweeting in Convoy seminar “teaser” video later, Brian!

It does seem like the best way to handle a general firm account. Apart from Taylor Wessing I haven’t noticed any of the other large firms doing this, but I’ll keep an eye out for it now.

This is a good list of individuals and firms who tweet according to their Klout ranking. You should, however, bear in mind that ‘Twegals’ includes anyone interested in or associated with the law and is not limited to lawyers. Mike’s list can be found at:-

http://klout.com/mikejulietbravo/list/21739

Mike has pointed out that this list is “a straight import from one that needs a bit more care”. Despite this fact it is still a far more reliable list to refer to than that produced by Flagship Consulting. It also has the benefit of including individual lawyers who do, of course, have far more impact on social media than law firms do.

Yes… that is ‘Tweeting in Convoy’ (as coined by Jon Bloor) in action. See Jon’s seminal post on the topic:-

http://www.peninsulawyer.com/blog/2009/9/30/tweeting-in-convoy.html

I regularly use Jon’s analogy in presentations and recently discussed this in ‘Playing Battleships’ for Inside Knowledge:-

http://www.ikmagazine.com/display.asp?sid=0&articleid=695044E1-0777-43B1-8D7B-965BDBAB13AE&eTitle=Playing_battleships

Personally I don’t think the “views are their own” rider used by Taylor Wessing and other firms is necessary. We don’t do this when Tweeting in Convoy at Inksters.
