Brief Update

Things have been quite crazy so I haven't blogged in awhile. Summer school, job hunting, final semester, moving...oh yes, and the financial turmoil.

I've joined Twitter (http://twitter.com/econwriter5) and am exploring SecondLife. Joining Twitter is more to satisfy my curiosity. SecondLife, on the other hand, is school related.

Online dispute resolutions have come up in both my Cyberlaw class and my Technology and the Ethical Practice of Law class.

Larry Lessig, in his book "Code: And Other Laws of Cyberspace, Version 2.0," raises the issue of online disputes in virtual worlds like SecondLife. And there is the National Center for Technology and Dispute Resolution.

The subject requires more investigation...so stay tuned.
