Big Legal Brain to Release “Shpoonkle for Dummies”

Latest from C. Hank Peters

Building on its behind-the-scenes review of the Yiddish-language lawyer bidding site known as Shpoonkle, Big Legal Brain is proud to announce the pending release of its first eBook, Shpoonkle for Dummies, expected in early 2012. The book, currently at 340 pages, comes with screen-shot illustrations, an inside look at the Shpoonkle “client bidding source code,” and a fold-out Shpoonkle map with a comprehensive dry erase bidding log.

shpoonkle-dummiesThe book will cost $29.95 and will also be available by fax. Topics in the current draft of Shpoonkle for Dummies include:

  • Navigating the site, including how to deal with instructions in Yiddish;
  • An interactive journey through the storied Shpoonkle history, including biographies of great Shpoonklers of the past;
  • How to pimp your Shpoonkle profile to make it shine (includes how to add animated gifs and where to buy Shpoonkle bling points);
  • What makes up the Shpoonkle bid algorithm so you understand how to beat out other lawyers competing against you;
  • A one page discussion of ethical issues, if any, that could arise out of using Shpoonkle;
  • How to bid on your own services to increase their perceived value;
  • A feature-by-feature comparison between Shpoonkle and eBay, including anticipated new features like “Buy Me Now” and “Auction Fest”;
  • The art of the so-called “fresh start Shpoonklies:” when and how often to delete your profile and start over;

Lawyers can pre-order the book online beginning next week. Attendees at the 2014 ABA Tech Show, however, can get a discount coupon code now by visiting booth 407 and asking representatives at the Westlaw booth to “yo, Shpoonkle me.”

      It’s publishing lingo for some day we’ll let people have it but in the meantime we need something to create some buzz.
