Searchketeers featured on The New York Times developer site

The New York Times has choosen to feature our Searchketeers application in its gallery of applications using their APIs. On Friday, the first day Searchketeers appeared in the gallery, Searchketeers was also displayed at the bottom the home page of The New York Times Developer Network (screenshot).

Note that, even though we specialize in software for law firms and their clients, Searchketeers has nothing to do with the legal world. We believe that working on software projects outside of the legal world greatly helps us in our efforts to develop innovative law-related software services. These projects allow us to experiment with new technologies and ideas that will eventually make their way into our core law-related services.

A Searchketeer is a specialized search engine that this tailored to a particular topic. Read more here and then try it out for yourself. Searchketeers is very much a work in progress; we would love to hear your feedback.

kite: lightweight electronic discovery

In tough economic times like these, law firms and their clients should be asking: Are the enormous sums of money currently spent on electronic discovery really worth it?

Very soon, we will be unveiling a "lightweight" electronic discovery solution called kite. By "lightweight," we mean affordable and easy-to-use. Currently, the field of electronic discovery is way too complicated. Vendors try to make features sound fancier than they really are and then they proceed to charge exorbitant prices for those features. kite is our attempt to simplify the field of electronic discovery. But do not confuse simplicity with lack-of-power. On the contrary, we believe that simplicity is power.

kite will be both a service and a platform. That is, software developers will be able to extend kite by using several application programmer interfaces (APIs) exposed by kite.

When the time comes, we will announce the debut of kite on this blog. If you would like to be contacted when kite becomes available, contact us.

the debut of TrialExhibitStickers.com

SwayLaw is excited to announce the debut of a new website for our trial exhibit stickering service: TrialExhibitStickers.com.

The TrialExhibitStickers.com site is new, but our trial exhibit stickering service is not. We've been offering the service since December 2006. In the little-over-two-years since the service debuted, our stickers have been used in trials across the country, from the United States District Court for the Southern District of California in San Diego to the International Trade Commission in Washington, D.C..

Up until now, we have done absolutely no advertising for the service! All of our new clients have learned about the service through word-of-mouth from our existing clients. We value this word-of-mouth advertising above all else. To all of our clients: thank you so much taking the time to recommend our services to others.
