Wormhole as Best in Show at LegalTechNY?

Wormhole as Best in Show at LegalTechNY?

Here is a technology flash from Charles Christian’s American Legal Technology Insider (#43) February 2012, at 5. I quote his note in full.

“The most interesting product we encountered at LTNY 2012 was a system not on public show but merely in the final stages of development. All we can say is its codename is Wormhole and it has the potential to transform the way many inhouse legal teams manage their relationships with outside counsel. Watch this space for further news.”

I can’t wait! To brush up your knowledge of wormholes, there is the highly recommended Lorentzian Wormholes: From Einstein To Hawking, Matt Visser. American Institute of Physics Press, 1996, chapters 1 et passim). For non-Lorentzian wormholes and a more technical presentation, the leading exposition can be found in Quantum Field Theory Constrains Traversable Wormhole Geometries. L. H. Ford and T. A. Roman in Physical Review D, Vol. 53, No. 10, pages 5496-5507; May 15, 1996. Available at xxx.lanl.gov/abs/gr-qc/9510071. A website of singular value wormhole-wise is by Ford and Roman.
