The Times They are A Changing – some secrets are out!

March 18, 2009 – 2:55 am

I was feeling nostalgic listening to Bob Dylan’s music and remembered my times in Zurich (back in the 1997/8) especially the stories and tales about the gold vaults underneath the streets of Zurich! I wish I can trace my friends and ex-colleagues in Zurich so that we can re-visit and re-craft the tales in the [...]

E-Discovery and Electronic Disclosure at the Peace Palace,The Hague

March 18, 2009 – 12:27 am

Talk on competition and collaboration

This is a spontaneous blog! I just counted the number of registered users here and click2ediscovery now has a dozen users. With all the jazz and ding-dong (this phrase just sprang to mind !) on ediscovery related stuff, how come no news from the alternative dispute resolution world on edisclosure.

out with the old?

January 7, 2009 – 12:55 am

Just couple of days ago, one of my twins asked: ‘Mummy what is your New Year Resolution’? I said: ‘Oh! I don’t know except I need to get rid of my old TV and cancel my TV licence’. When I said ‘old’ it’s over 20+ years aged Sony TV. Still working fine except the remote [...]
