This blog has followed by own research interests in becoming increasing focused upon evaluation and technology question in e-discovery, rather than in information retrieval more generally. Now my own career has followed my interests out the ivy-clad gates of academia and into private consulting in e-discovery. In recognition of these changes, I've also changed the name of my blog, from "IREvalEtAl" to "Evaluating E-Discovery". There will be some other cosmetic changes to follow, but (for now at least) we're at the same URL and on the same RSS feed.
