I am going to be presenting a segment on virtual law - being a lawyer in the virtual world of Second Life.® The presentation will be at a seminar sponsored by the Association of Defense Counsel of Northern California and Nevada. The seminar entitled, "Owning and operating a business called a 'law firm', will take place from July 31 - August 1, 2009 in Monterey, California.

I will be on a panel along with Ida Jones, professor at the Craig School of Business, California State University Fresno, and Lorri Mon, assistant professor, College of Information, Florida State University.

Our presentation will focus on the internet virtual world of Second Life. We will provide an overview of what Second Life is and a discussion of some of the legal issues that arise in Second Life. We will talk about the educational opportunities for lawyers in Second Life and the challenges of practicing law in Second Life. Finally, We will explore some of the other Web 2.0 applications such as Twitter, Facebook, etc. and discuss some of the legal issues that may arise for lawyers who use them.

If you are planning to go to the seminar, I hope you will introduce yourself to me.
