The Tax Prof blog features a Chronicle of Higher Education story (paid subscription required) about Shpoonkle,  a "matchmaking Web site where recent law  graduates could hone their legal  skills by bidding alongside other  lawyers for clients seeking  affordable counsel." Shpoonkle operates as "a reverse-auction site where  potential clients describe legal problems  and lawyers bid to see who can  solve them for the lowest price."
Lawyer Scott Greenfield is not a Shpoonkle ("the eBay of lawyering") fan  and writes on his Simple Justice blog: "The name is absolutely awful.  The concept far worse."
