Silly Patents! Trix are for Kids
by Tim Lee on August 15, 2006
I see that Jason Schultz at EFF was way ahead of me on blogging about software patents. Over the last two and a half years, he’s accumulated a list of 25 silly software and Internet patents. Lucky for me, he doesn’t appear to have patented the idea of blogging about software patents, leaving me free to shamelessly rip of his idea.
