CHICAGO, IL. -- January 17, 2000 /MMG/ -- Gordon & Glickson LLC, an internationally recognized information technology and e-commerce law firm, has unveiled the next generation of its award-winning Web site, http://www. ggtech. com (http://www. ggtech. com). Gordon & Glickson is one of the first law firms in the country to create a "community" model for its site that encourages online discussions about current legal issues and trends affecting the technology marketplace.
"Our Web site is designed to be a useful resource for anyone who wants information on digital legal issues," said Mark L. Gordon, managing partner. "The new site promotes an exchange of information between visitors and the firm. We will use this information going forward to shape the site's content."
The Web site's unique "community" feature allows visitors to obtain and share information in discussion forums, as well as learn about upcoming events and news, and link to sites selected specifically for each community. Current communities include Alliances and Business Combinations, Beyond Y2K, Commercial IT Transactions, Data Transactions and Privacy, Disputes and Litigation, Emerging Companies and Financing, Healthcare Technology, International Issues, and Internet & E-Commerce.
In addition to the day's breaking IT stories, tech law updates, and full-length white papers on a wide range of legal issues, the Gordon & Glickson Web site serves as a clearinghouse for e-commerce and technology law intelligence. It helps users filter information and provides shortcut searches through the more than 7.5 million links to sites containing data, news, and advice about the information technology industry.
GORDON & GLICKSON LAUNCHES NEXT GENERATION WEB SITE
"To better help meet the needs of Gordon & Glickson Web site users, we moved away from the concept of heavy bitmaps and complicated page links so visitors can find and share information quickly and easily," said Marcelo Halpern, a partner in the firm who led the site development with Lynn Stram, the firm's cyber-librarian.
Visitors also can reach attorneys with specific expertise through the site's "About Us" section, which includes a comprehensive list of all the firm's attorneys and professional staff, along with e-mail links. The section also highlights staff credentials and provides background on their practice areas.
Gordon & Glickson's Web site is the center of its communications and business model. In its tradition of maintaining a strong Web presence, the firm was among the first technology law firms to create a comprehensive, interactive site. Shortly after its December 1995 launch, the firm's original site won a national award from the American Bar Association and was covered in numerous technology media.
Gordon & Glickson LLC, an internationally recognized lawfirm, is a leader in providing quality legal services to the information technology and e-commerce marketplaces. Crain's Chicago Business named the firm "one of the top 100 technology organizations in Chicago."
