Junior Attorney at big law firm needing advice

Hi everyone,

I have a question that I figured you guys can help with. I am starting my career as a junior attorney at a large law firm in NY, where I will be working in the banking & finance group. I was just wondering what are some things that current analysts/associates in banking and finance read to keep up with the industry. I figured since you guys are clients, knowing what you guys read to get your information would make sense. Also any forums or twitter handles that you follow would be greatly appreciated.

I get that.. as I currently do that... but I was thinking more along the lines of social media forums etc, and blogs aka not mainstream... along with twitter handles... I hope this makes sense.
