He covered the case Oracle America, Inc. v. Google, Inc. and became known for his style of humor and clear explanations throughout the trial.

His review of Radiohead's album The King of Limbs garnered both support and criticism when he argued the band had dealt a death blow to the concept of the album.[2]
