Facebook Huddles with Patent Vampire

,----[ Quote ]
| After leaving Microsoft, Myhrvold went into the patent business. His
| Intellectual Ventures works like this: Buy up patents, then use them to
| bludgeon large tech companies into forking over fees or making investments in
| Intellectual Ventures.
|
| In the course of his short career, Zuckerberg, as a tipster reminded us, has
| accumulated a nice array of patents. They're related, as you might guess, to
| social networking and digital media. Could he use them against his rivals via
| Myhrvold, raising some money for Facebook in the process?
