Lawyer Blogger Featured in WSJ

Twitter Goes Mainstream - WSJ.com.jpgAndrew Flusche was recently featured in the WSJ.com about twitter. Not only does Andrew take advantage of twitter, he is also a blogger. Andrew has Legal Andrew and his practice specific blog, Andrew Flusche, Fredericksburg Lawyer.

Andrew is also one of those guys who just gets it. As if evident by the write up in the WSJ.com called Twitter Goes Mainstream.

Other users are flocking to Twitter as an easy self-publishing and promotional tool. People are using it to build up their professional reputation by sharing updates about their work in a less time-intensive way than starting a blog. Andrew Flusche, an attorney in Fredericksburg, Va., recently used Twitter to promote a webinar he was holding on trademark registration. The session got 15 attendees, compared with seven for a subsequent seminar he didn’t promote on the service.

Mr. Flusche, 26, has also found the service handy for referring cases to experts in other areas, as well as keeping up with professional contacts he doesn’t see often. “You get interesting glimpses of them,” he says. “It’s a different way to network with people and get to know them.”

This is just one more example of how you cannot only use a blog to get noticed, you can us twitter too.
