USPTO Convinced By Amazon That Online Gift Giving Patent Is Legit
,----[ Quote ]
| Amazon continues to aggressively pursue
| variations on its "one-click" patent, even as
| it is repeatedly held up as an example of how
| screwed up the patent system has become. In
| the latest story, found on Slashdot, a patent
| application for method of buying gifts online
| was originally rejected under the CAFC's
| recent Bilski rules because the invention "may
| be performed largely within the human mind."

Google Patents Displaying Patents
,----[ Quote ]
| "Google has actually managed to patent
| displaying patents. The USPTO issued US
| Patent No. D603,866 to six Google inventors
| for their 'graphical user interface for
| display screen of a communications
| terminal.' Among the six inventors is the
| guy who introduced Google Patents.
| Ironically, Google Patents can't seem to
| find the new Google patent for Google
| Patents."
