As I'm writing this I'm fresh back from the ABA TechShow in Chicago where I got to meet my friends from Rocket Matter. Their booth was swamped with people for good reason.

This week, Rocket Matter is giving away a free ebook, The Law Firm of Tomorrow, that shows the direction of all service-based businesses. This is definitely worth your time.

I'd like to thank Hoban Cards for sponsoring MacSparky.com this week. We all love our digital bits but there is something to be said for carrying a letterpress business card around. It shows people that you sweat all the details. It is just classy. I can't think of anyone better to make you that card than Evan Calkins at Hoban Cards. There are several templates to choose from or you can work with Evan to make something custom. (In addition to being a master at his 1500 lb. 1902 letterpress printing machine, Evan is a graphic designer.) That's what I did and I love the results.
There is a video of Evan in action at the website. Use the offer code "MacSparky" for free shipping.

What happens when you combine the knowledge of a top notch graphic designer like Evan Calkins with a 1902 letterpress printing machine? Magic. This week's sponsor is Hoban Cards. Evan Calkins got his hands on a 1500lb, 1902 Chandler and Price platen letterpress. Each order utilizes its own letterpress plate created from a digital file and is hand pressed by Evan himself. If you want a business card that stands out, look no further. I've already ordered my own set. I love that this business is Evan's own personal crusade and I love what he is producing. You can watch a video of Evan in action at the Hoban Cards website.

Thanks Rocket Matter for supporting MacSparky.com

I've long believed that computing platforms will become increasingly less relevant as we move forward with cloud-based software. The legal profession is a good example where just a few years ago, everybody used Windows PCs.
That's not true any more and this week's RSS Sponsor, Rocket Matter, demonstrates why. These guys have built the premier web-based law practice management platform that takes care of all your needs to run a small (or large) law office.
If you are a legal professional, check them out. If you aren't a legal professional but pay for your shoes through billing by the hour, you should still check out their free e-book, Ridiculously Remarkable Legal Billing, with immediately useful, practical advice, no matter what your trade.
