As I asked in another comment to another post earlier: As a matter of empirical data, have legal bloggers' noticed if their law review placements have become better since they started to blog?

In other words, is it the more one blogs, the better law review placement one receives, and, consequently, the more likely one's law school increasingly becomes a preeminent law school? See the top-25 law review editor comment from the Nov. 6th post
on "The Driver of Law School Reputation," for some support of this view.

Paul, I think no one is answering because no one knows. I've only sent out once since I've been blogging, and my placement was the same as my first placement and better than the other two. But, I sent out on different letterhead (see Kate's comments). A lot of well-known bloggers were well-known scholars before they started blogging, so it's hard to separate out different factors. I don't know of a well-known blogger who wasn't a serious scholar before blogging, actually.

Christine, generally agree, but there are some bloggers who are just starting out in their academic careers. Consider many of the people on the Prawfs Blog for instance. Also consider the list Dan Solove just published. Although many are serious scholars in their field, certainly not all. In any event, very interesting post.
