Watching the Blawgs, Friday Edition

News from around the blogosphere this Friday morning:

• Big spender spends more. In January, we described James Sokolove as legal advertising's biggest spender. Well, he just got even bigger -- to the tune of $25 million this year.

• Times really are tough. So much so that one U.S. lawyer is reported to be auctioning off his expensive designer suits on eBay at a fraction of their cost.

• Blog creates a PAC. The Massachusetts political blog Blue Mass. Group is doing something unusual and perhaps unprecedented for a blog -- it is forming a political action committee. Two of the blog's three principal writers are lawyers, David C. Kravitz and Bob Neer.

• Arbitration fairness. At Jottings by an Employer's Lawyer, Michael Fox considers the relative fairness of consumer and employment arbitration clauses.

• What goes around. President Obama has nominated Minnesota's former U.S. attorney, B. Todd Jones, to be Minnesota's new U.S. attorney.

• Good cause. Help the Online Document Assembly Project win $5,000 cash and $25,000 worth of donated software in Microsoft's and TechSoup's Show Your Impact contest. Here is how.

• Help wanted. Web designer for Washington, D.C.-based highest court in the nation.

• Supreme ideology. The blues and reds of the Supreme Court since 1937. [Thanks, Drug and Device Law.]
