Live from the UMUC Inn and Conference Center, the Center for
Intellectual Property presents its Eighth Annual Symposium on
copyright-face-to-face, online, and-this year-in-world in Second Life!

Copyright Monopoly: Playing the innovation game
May 28-30, 2008
ONLINE ACCESS!
http://www.umuc.edu/cip/symposium/simulcast.shtml

For those who are interested in participating in this symposium, but are
not able to travel to Adelphi, MD, the CIP is pleased to offer two
online opportunities to attend the program and to participate in the
discussions. 

For the first time, you may now join this event in the Internet-based
virtual world of Second Life.  Whether you are already active in Second
Life or have never entered this online world, you may register to attend
and to participate in this unique online program, which is being hosted
in a secure academic virtual conference center.  What better way to
explore this year's symposium theme of playing the innovation game than
to do so within the Second Life metaverse, an environment rich with
innovation and creativity?

If you are interested in participating in this online offering of the
symposium program but you are either technologically unable or would
prefer not to do so via Second Life, you may still join us through our
traditional webcast.  This live webcast stream is accessible either as
an individual or with colleagues from your institution for a special
group rate.

Register today for access to the CIP Symposium Simulcast:
*	Individuals: $225 (Second Life simulcast or traditional webcast)

*	Institutions: $575 (traditional webcast ONLY, for 3+ individuals
from the same institution/organization)

Full details on the symposium and the simulcast, including registration,
may be found at http://www.umuc.edu/CIP2008.
