In this rapid changing environment, most of the corporation will use internet as a way to advertise their corporation. Blogging is one of the ways to make advertisement. It is an easy way to publicize their company. There are many companies achieve successes by using blogging in order to generate more income and customers.
Anyone can blog. However, people should not blog something which touches on sensitive issues, or they will be sued or jailed for several years. Nowadays, some lawyers gone for blogging in order to get more income and potential customers but it may cause some ethical issues to arise. Should lawyer be prohibited from blogging due to the nature of blogging which may contain some elements of marketing? It is an arguable issue. Due to the improvement of information technology, we are supposed to get all necessary information from internet. Even so, we still have to consider whether the information we got is suitable for us and whether it is legal information. Can we stop lawyers from expressing their personal opinion on the blog? From my opinion, it is not suitable to stop anyone express their opinion. Due to some level of law, putting up comments and blog can be translated into advice or advertising. It cannot be denied also that lawyers who advertise through online will breach the professional code of ethics. In professional code of ethics, we know that professionals should not make advertisement for themselves that may confuse public. Thus, this is a dilemma confronted by lawyers in this new tech-internet environment. It is difficult for lawyers to evaluate which information should be post and which should not.
