Well, I guess it should come as no surprise that news of Lawrence Lessig’s virtual world appearance in Second Life has hit Boing Boing (Link), the site co-edited by like-minded science fiction author and previous SL visitor Cory Doctorow. Wonderful.

You can read an earlier post of mine (Link) where I comment on both Lessig’s and Richard Epstein’s essays (posted last year on the MIT Technology Review website). Perhaps that will explain why I’m less than enthusiastic. In the meantime, I intend to do some reading. But I have a feeling that I won’t find much in Lessig’s writings to cover my issues with the problems I detail in that post.
