I've blogged before on the merits of the "All-Raich SuperBlog" approach to blogging about new Supreme Court cases. My initial thought was that law reviews would jump at this concept, hosting instant symposia on their websites. I don't think any journals have done so yet; it's only been two weeks, but in Internet time that seems like ages ago.

  In the meantime, Professor Randy Picker of the University of Chicago Law School has just announced that he is starting a blog that will do much the same thing. (Hat tip: Solove) Please welcome the Picker MobBlog to the blogosphere:

  The idea is to bring together a group of interested people to blog on a particular topic, do so, and disband. I will post on the blog intermittently between mobs, but the mobs will be the heart of the blog. I think of this as an online reading group or an online workshop.
  . . . .
  The first mob topic will be the forthcoming opinions in Grokster and Brand X. Smart mob bloggers on Grokster and Brand X will include me (Randy Picker); my colleagues Doug Lichtman and Lior Stahilevitz; Julie Cohen; Wendy Gordon; Jessica Litman; Larry Solum; and Phil Weiser.

  This is an all-star cast for Grokster and Brand X; definitely check it out when those opinions are handed down.

  By the way, that sound you hear is the blogosphere changing legal scholarship. It's not going to be the last time you hear it.
