Today's users of virtual environments -- estimated to number 50 million by 2011 -- invest huge amounts of time, money, and heart into their online homes. But modern license agreements do not accord them any ownership over this investment. This book explores the complex relationships between virtual world inhabitants, creators, worlds, and the real-world law that now is closing in to mediate between them.Joining editors Erik Bethke and Erin Hoffman are contibutors Julian Dibbell, Bill Fulton, Laura Genender, Andres Guadamuz, Link Hughes, Sean F. Kane, Raph Koster, Heather and Susan Logas, P?tur J?hannes ?skarsson, Russ Pitts, Cat Rambo, Chris Rettstatt, Ren Reynolds, and Allen Varney.
