Where will you be next Monday? The 25th edition of ABA TECHSHOW will begin on April 11, 2011, in Chicago. I am pleased to again be a part of the outstanding faculty for the fourth year of the "Mac Track". The lineup for this full day of Mac-focused education is listed below:
- Going Beyond Microsoft Word on the Mac :: Focuses on the tools available on the Mac that give you the most power over text and composition. Victor Medina practices in New Jersey and is the tireless organizer of MILOfest. David Sparks (MacSparky) practices in California and just finished a most helpful tome entitled “Macs at Work.”
- How Do You Manage Your Practice on a Mac? :: Covers the practice management options for Mac-using lawyers presented by Victor Media and Ben Stevens who practices in South Carolina and is the indomitable author of The Mac Lawyer blog.
- Managing Your Documents on a Mac :: Provides a ton of tips and options for managing your documents on a Mac. Mark Metzger practices in the Chicago suburbs. Finis Price practices in Louisville, KY and also provides trial consulting through TechnoESQ.
- Mac Power Users :: The last session where Finis Price, Ben Stevens, and myself (Brett Burney) will cover a slew of “power user” tips that will help you go beyond the basics of using your Mac.
As if those are enough good reasons to attend, there will be additional sessions covering the iPhone and iPad. Many of the premier Mac-related software vendors (including Rocket Matter, Clio, and Daylite) will be exhibiting and will be glad to discuss their products with you in person. This year’s keynote speaker is, who is a huge Mac fan and uses Keynote very effectively in his talks. I hope to see you in Chicago next week. If you are there and see me, please stop and say hello.
Thanks to Brett Burney for his work on the TECHSHOW planning board and for his post (and the session descriptions above) on this topic.
I encourage everyone to look their best for TechShow. Here’s a video of me cutting my hair. Ben, you don’t have to worry yourself with that:

Are there any resources (including the ABA site) that we can visit to see the presentations and seminars? I am trying to start a practice entirely paperless, and entirely mac-based. I just want to access as much information as possible. Your blog is great, as are others, but I missed the tech show and really just want to see webinars/videos dealing with the topics of my concern. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Tanveer.
