'The post Remember the Internet When Considering The Things appeared first on John Battelle's Search Blog. Last month I sat down with my old pal Jay Adelson (Digg, Revision 3, Equinix, SimpleGeo) who together with his partner Andy Smith is raising a new fund focused on the Internet of Things.

It’s easy to get lost in the LegalTech glitz. There are sumptuous breakfasts, hosted Happy Hours, and late night parties. On the show floor, there is flashy signage, free cappuccinos, beauteous bootblacks, and ingenious swag.* The conference sessions, despite a penchant for hyperbole, are where the rubber meets the road (to coin a phrase). At the very end of LegalTech New York, on Feb. 6, ARMA International delivered a three session track on Information Governance (IG).

At the New York City LegalTech Feb. 3-6, Information Governance (IG) could be seen as an incidental tag line or a rising star.
