Eolas browser plug-in patent invalidated
by US Patent Office 03/08/2004 11:08 PM
The US Patent and Trademark Office has now stepped in and invalidated the Eolas patent. The decision, if it is upheld, will clear Microsoft of charges of wrong-doing.

Patent Office Agrees To Check Into All
That Prior Art On The Eolas Patent

Patent Office Agrees To Check Into All
That Prior Art On The Eolas Patent 11/12/2003 01:35 PM
The latest in the Eolas patent saga is that someone at the Patent Office has finally agreed to review the patent based on stacks and stacks of prior art that people have been finding. Amazingly, the Patent Office appears to have responded quickly (though, they don't say how long it will take for a new decision on the patent) to the requests for a re-examination of the patent. There's a quote from the USPTO's deputy commissioner for patent examination policy saying that this was an "extraordinary situation" which necessitated the quick response. The problem with this statement is that it's not an extraordinary situation. In fact, it's an increasingly common situation, where silly patents are getting the stamp of approval every day - and then used to hold other companies up for extortion, rather than for encouraging innovation.

Silly Patent Of The Day: Adobe Hit With
Lawsuit Over Hyperlink Patent 07/08/2004 05:05 PM
I think it's about time we came up with a new topic/icon for stupid patents. There are just so many of them these days. The latest is that Adobe, who is no stranger to abusing intellectual property rules, is now being hit with a patent over their PDF technology. The patent is for a method of extracting network information via hyperlinks. Reading through the patent, they're basically describing a system for clicking on a hyperlinking and having the system not only download the page in question, but all locally related pages linked from that page as well. Perhaps a useful system, but it seems like this sort of technology was around well before the patent was granted, and it's unclear what it has to do with PDF files.

US Patent Office Grants Special Patent
Status to Private Inventor Regarding
Alleged Technology Infringement by
Acterna Corporation’s DSAM 2500 Cable
Modem Tester 09/27/2004 03:30 AM
Richard C. Jaworski announces that the US Patent Office has granted his “Petition to Make Special” on his System of Testing the Upstream Cable Modem Channel (TUCMC) patent application. The petition to the US Patent Office alleged infringement of his technology by Acterna Corporation in their DSAM 2500 Cable Modem Test Instrument. Mr. Jaworski has written evidence that Acterna knew of the patent and the technology prior to releasing the feature in the DSAM 2500. According to patent law, triple damages are applicable for prior knowledge infringement as soon as the patent issues. Due to its special status, Jaworski expects the patent to issue in the immediate future. [PRWEB Sep 27, 2004]

Tuesdays with Maury

Tuesdays with Maury 05/20/2004 04:17 PM
Not exactly renewing my faith in humanity. Evidently even mentioning Maury Povitch on your website will result in receiving hundreds of comments from people who believe they are writing to Maury himself. The results are predictably unpredictable. (NOTE: Have a sense of irony and 20 minutes handy before clicking)

Dear Maury

Dear Maury 05/19/2004 04:11 PM

Holy cow, this example of people thinking they are talking to Maury is even better than the overhaulin' example. Despite the page saying clearly it was just one person's account of seeing a show, and despite the author making comments pleading with people to stop and openly mocking them, they continue.

Aside from my Google hypothesis, my other one of course is that people never read anything and Google results leading to blogs just makes that more obvious.

Gnomedex: The Summary

How do you describe a conference, Gnomedex, where you get to meet and hang out with:

• Tim O'Reilly -- If you don't get the reference then piffle to you
• Rob Malda -- the founder of Slashdot
• Dan Gillmor -- San Jose Mercury News
• Beth Goza from Microsoft who actually owns a Segway !!!
• Nelson Minar from Google
• Nick Bradbury from FeedDemon, Topstyle and Homesite
• Oh and, of course, Chris Pirillo
• Tom Bridge from MacSlash
• And, even better, all the myriad Gnomedexers and Gnomedex Bloggers (who are listed here) -- I got the best suggestions on Feedster from just different random people.  And I'll be implementing those over the next few weeks and months. 

Over the next few days I'll blog more about the conference including slides I thought were relevant.  The overall impression I got from the conference was simple -- it rocked.  Chris managed to make a technical conference **fun**.  How often do you see that?  And I have to admit that I was purely in awe of watching Chris' people skills.  For me the most interesting part of the conference was probably just watching Chris interact with people. He's a natural -- its so clear why people pretty much love him. 

So if you missed Gnomedex then all I have to say is you should make it next year.  The event was outstanding.  Thanks Chris.
