News You Can Bruise for 2005 June 11 (entry 0)

(1) Sat Jun 11 2005 22:34 PST: I came up with an idea today which is not particularly clever, but which I think I could get a patent on if it's not already patented. It's the same caliber of ridiculous stuff that gets software patents put on it, and I was idly kicking around the meta-idea of actually trying to get a patent on it to use an example of ridiculousness. Does this make any kind of sense or is it all a sucker's game?

Patents are expensive trivialities. Were i a patent lawyer, or just married to one, i would have many, many dumb little patents. Otherwise, they're not worth it unless you really plan to recoup your 2k$ investment.
