Twitter handle is your identifier : Real Lawyers Have Blogs.
Kevin O'Keefe hits the nail on the head here. If you aren't engaged, as a lawyer, with Social Media; especially Twitter and Google+, you are like a lawyer in 1980 without a telephone number. I am @rickgeorges on Twitter and +Richard Georges on Google+. Just as a GMail address is essential (rickgeorges@gmail.com), engagement in Social Media makes you a part of the global discussion. It is how you get noticed on the Internet; but, more than that, it is how you become part of the coming revolution in communications.

I struggle with this one. My clients may or may not have Twitter, but I seriously doubt if they will be looking for me there. It's enough of a time commitment to keep up my blogs (yes, there is more than one) - I would never get any work done if I fully participated in only the most prevalent social media options. While apparently outdated, my communication of choice is email for professional purposes. I prefer to keep the other media options (including Facebook and Twitter) purely social. With Google+, LinkedIn, MySpace (is that still around?), Facebook and Twitter (and so on...) -- how many different platforms do we need?
