While we are happy to include trademarks and other forms of IP in the community sites (forums, wiki etc.) it is our intention to focus the directory and search features on Patents at this time.

Check out the Wiki if your not familiar with the difference. Jens Sorensen    Report

Nike (sports) IBM (computers). A patent (utillity) is protection on a new or novel idea or improvement to an existing technology. A design patent is only good for really descript inventions where the appearance of the device is what protection is granted for. Hey whats up nice forum we should start working togeather Iv got a simular site i just put up http://www.aninvention.com come and check it out and post about this forum at my site just as i have here. And we can start getting these communities rolling also as far as what i can offer all of you, 6 years experience as a patent Illustraitor / Designer . Examples of my work can be found on http://www.dreamsiphon.com . (I am an Illustraitor / Designer NOT a registered patent attorney or agent nothing i post should be taken as legal advice.) Thank you for your time, Tom     Report
