NEW: WikiWatch blog from Wolters Kluwer Law & Business

In the global instant-information culture, professionals often want fast answers to news that potentially threatens their organizations—even if the accuracy and validity of the information sources are in question. Now, decision makers can quickly turn to the new WikiWatch blog from Wolters Kluwer Law & Business for analysis of the potential legal and business consequences tied to the release of proprietary documents.

When new information becomes public through WikiLeaks, WikiWatch offers credible perspectives from experienced professionals providing insights to implications these releases may have on businesses and future legislative developments. (WikiWatch and WikiLeaks are separate, unrelated entities.)

WikiWatch will be an interactive forum for analysis and commentary that promotes discussions of information technology, computer law, data privacy, intellectual property, e-commerce and litigation issues relating to information law. It will especially add value for Internet protocol, antitrust, securities, banking and compliance professionals. The blog monitors the latest disclosures from WikiLeaks with an RSS feed right on the home page, distributes blog posts from internationally recognized legal, business and academic professionals and encourages interactive feedback by inviting readers to post comments and opinions of blog posts.
