Good points Paul. I have some more thoughts on this which I'll expand on shortly.

It's a good idea, but not wanting to be too skeptical , how do you avoid the 'rateMySolicitor' type court cases?

Also , given that vendors are more Web 2 aware than most solicitors, what's to stop them gaming the site and putting up positive reviews.

Most of the time, if I'm happy to recommend somebody I'll connect to them via LinkedIn.com. And yes, I know that OPML would be a more vendor-neutral solution ...

Perhaps we should use the word "musings" rather than "lists"!

I'm happy to kick this off with a mix of people I talked to and liked combined with those who have been recommended to me.

Damn, didn't get there in time!

Oh ye of little faith, didn't ye know that OPML can be used to solve absolutely any problem? But be very very careful about calling anything a 'list'
