My friend John Hodgman's hilarious book, The Areas of My Expertise, is now out in paperback.**

** With all new material!

DealBreaker re-launched this morning with a sleeker layout, a smaller logo and, among other things, a user forum. We're still fixing bugs, so if you're a reader and you spot anything that seems to be broken, please let us know.

And coming soon...

Introducing... AboveTheLaw.com, Dead Horse Media's new online legal tabloid. Above The Law is written by David Lat,** formerly of Wonkette and Underneath Their Robes. (For background on David's blogging and lawyering history, check out this profile in the New Yorker.)

** Lat, like DealBreaker editor John Carney, was formerly a practicing attorney, which brings our staff to 28% lawyers. Send them a cease & desist at your own risk!
