He has been shortlisted as an "IP Thought Leader" by Managing IP magazine[7] and named an "IP Vanguard" by the California State Bar's Intellectual Property section.[8]
Goldman publishes the Technology & Marketing Law Blog, which covers Internet Law, Intellectual Property, and Advertising Law.[citation needed] The blog was named to the ABA Journal's Blawg 100 Hall of Fame.[9]
Goldman oversees DoctoredReviews.com, a website designed to combat doctors' efforts to suppress patients' reviews,[10] serves on the board of directors of the Public Participation Project, a group lobbying for federal anti-SLAPP legislation[11] and coauthored an amicus brief in the 1-800 Contacts, Inc. v.
