Google introduces patent search
Steve Safran December 22nd, 2006
Google Patent Search is now live - and a whole lot of fun. (Check out the pants from 1886 and, of course, the Flying Car.)

Yep, it’s very cool and quite addictive. I spent awhile looking at videogame patents from the 70’s, like the Atari arcade games and 2600, and they even had technical drawing and schematics. Awesome!

Like most things from Google, it’s cute and all. I’ll even give them that their republishing of public domain data might be a tiny bit cleaner, but how does it really differ from the been-available-forever search via the Patent Office, except that the government will let you specify more search criteria and the Google thing has a shorter url?
Once again, I’ve coded my name to point to the established Patent search as a workaround.
PS) Happy Holidays to All
