Summary/Abstract: The future of online property is also the future of property. The line between the tangible and the online world, between the first real life and the second virtual life will be much less perceptible; people move in and out of these spaces constantly as a matter of course, in all spheres of life, quite oblivious to the here or there. As the real significance of the differences between these worlds diminishes, law will have to follow suit - whether it likes it or not. There will be legal change; legal adjustments, half-heartedly conceded, after protracted negotiations between the power brokers of the two world orders; the old sluggish, territorial order heavy with real things, traditions and habits of long standing and the new fast-moving touch typing global order driven by the now and tomorrow, unburdened by physicality and embedded rituals.
