Conversations about Jurisline.com remind me of an appearance by Tony Randall on the Tonite Show with Johnny Carson. For every cliche Johnny threw out, Randall instantly countered with an equally familiar and completely opposite cliche. “Haste makes waste.” “But he who hesitates is lost.” For every law librarian who says, “Jurisline.com looks too good to be true,” there is another person who says, “Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.”
Jurisline.com promises to solve the throbbing deficiency of free legal resources on the Internet. Its stated mission is to “address the highly fragmented and non-uniform sources of legal research material on the internet, and to replace them with a single integrated and intuitive search engine interface.” Jurisline.com is well on the way to doing just that and financing it, without user fees, by advertising.
