I am very excited to be restarting my blog in connection with my change in employment. For those who don't know, I recently left my position as General Counsel of CMA CGM (America) to join the firm of Williams Mullen. My new practice will be focused on the Transportation and Logistics industry with emphasis on the maritime and maritime related aspects thereof.
Keep watching my blog for new postings on maritime law, transportation industry issues and examples of the use of technology for the betterment of both the practice of law and the transportation industry.
A great example of the intersection of maritime law, technology and the industry can be found in icommandant, the blog kept by Admiral Thad Allen, USCG. See this recent post where Admiral Allen re-posts a comment from his Facebook Fanpage regarding the value of social media to National Security Professionals.
The 23rd Commandant of the United State Coast Guard has both a blog and a Facebook Fanpage . . . and people say that the maritime industry is stuck in the age of the Phoenicians!
