Disclosure

Denise Howell

I am a practicing lawyer and consultant on legal issues relating to the Live Web and social media, with a small, hardy, and eclectic group of clients. From time to time I may mention one of them and/or their activities on my ZDNet blog (as I have done periodically on Bag and Baggage), but if so I will try to always remember to identify them as such in the post itself. I blog and podcast in various and sundry places. Those that pay me at the moment and/or are anticipated to do so are here at ZDNet, and over on TWiT.tv for my show this WEEK in LAW. I speak fairly regularly at conferences or other events; some of these involve actual compensation, though most do not. Boards: I am on the board of the Attention Trust, and the advisory boards of Top Ten Media and the Law and Policies Institutions Guide. Investments: I invest or have invested tragically modest sums of money in technology (and occasionally other) companies for which I have a personal affinity, including Google, Apple, Amazon, and eBay. My investment accounts include individual stocks and mutual funds the precise composition of which I have long since lost track of. And my husband invests some of our community funds in Goodness Knows What. It is thus entirely possible that I or my family have some miniscule financial interest in companies about which I write here from time to time, and you should feel free to take that into account — though as a generally pleased user I think I'd probably write enthusiastic things about Apple and Google even if I weren't purchasing tiny amounts of their stock in anticipation of the value I hope it will have when my son reaches college age.
