Date: July 29th, 2014 5:02 PM Author: big hospital It's still a pain in the ass, because the tabs don't correlate exactly to your history, and you've lost your spot on those pages, etc. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2631164&forum_id=2#26023575) |

If only google would invest just a small amount of that $30+ billion it's sitting on and take over the legal research business.

Date: July 29th, 2014 4:59 PM Author: appetizing maniacal brethren Holy shit they totally could. Google is where I start now and I really only need the others for sheperdizing. Like $50 million would turn them into the perfect legal research tool. It's an area that is so ripe for disruption but I can't figure why they have left Google Scholar good, but not good enough.

Date: July 29th, 2014 5:06 PM Author: big hospital Because headnotes and sheperdizing is still done w/ human attorneys, and Google isn't going to get into that game. Westlaw employs people to categorize all that. It's not just some algorithm. It would be cool if algorithms eventually become good enough to take over though (though that's kind of scary in itself).

Date: July 29th, 2014 5:05 PM Author: big hospital I would be too nervous to use anything from Google Scholar as is, but I too nurture fantasies of Google investing a small amount to add headnotes/shepardizing and just destroying Westlaw.
