Daniel Solove has posted a very interesting list of all of the blogging law professors in the United States — or at least all of the ones a group of us could recall. Dan counts 103 blogging law professors so far. My estimate is that about half of them have begun blogging in the last 12 months.
It will be interesting to see how this list changes over time. Blogging is a natural medium for law professors: most law professors are generalists, good writers, interested in the world around them, and have the free time to sit around and blog. The medium provides an easy way to bridge the gap between scholarly audiences and the interested public. Blogospheric triumphalism is all too common, but my guess is that blogging will prove to be an increasingly common part of law professor life.
