I am delighted to announce the launch of AntitrustProf Blog, edited by Shubha Ghosh (Buffalo). The site is patterned after TaxProf Blog and combines both (1) regularly-updated permanent resources and links, and (2) daily news and information of interest to antitrust professors. I hope you will check out the site and pass along the link to colleagues and friends.
AntitrustProf Blog is the fourth member of the Law Professor Blogs Network designed to assist law professors in their scholarship and teaching. Our editors are leading scholars and teachers who are committed to providing the web destination for law professors in their fields. Our goal is for law faculty to visit the Law Professor Blog in their area (or areas) as part of their daily routine. The other existing blogs are:
• TaxProf Blog (since 4/15/04)
• Sentencing Law & Policy Blog (Douglas A. Berman (Ohio State)) (since 6/28/04)
• LaborProf Blog (Rafael Gely (Cincinnati)) (since 10/1/04)
We are actively recruiting faculty to start blogs in other areas of law and are thrilled to have these additional blogs in the pipeline:
• ChinaLawProf Blog
Donald C. Clark (George Washington)• CrimProf Blog
Gabriel J. (Jack) Chin (Arizona)
Mark A. Godsey (Cincinnati)• HealthLawProf Blog
S. Elizabeth Malloy (Cincinnati)
Thomas W. Mayo (SMU)• WhiteCollarCrimeProf Blog
Peter J. Henning (Wayne State)
Ellen S. Podgor (Georgia State)
Please email me if you might be interested in starting a blog as part of our Law Professor Blogs Network – Blogs By Law Professors For Law Professors. No particular web skills are necessary – we have created a user-friendly template that requires no more technical expertise than simple typing skills. The deal is we supply the template and all the technical expertise, and the editors agree to provide the daily content. Our model thus is very different from most of the existing law professor blogs (see a list here). Our blogs are not endless ruminations about the Iraq war, Presidential election, etc. Instead, our editors post each day a few items of interest to law professors in their field. Our blogs thus do not require a big time commitment from the editors. Indeed, with a group blog of 2 or more colleagues, the amount of daily work that any one person must do is quite minimal.

[Preliminary aside: Via TaxProf Blog, I found a new blog today that should interest law students interested in antitrust: the AntitrustProf Blog. If I could only find the ErisaPreemptionProf Blog, I’d be set for the rest of the year…] Now…
