(can I call it a movement?) Google also offers a free patent database as well - we offer a review of it at http://www.intellogist.com/wiki/Report:Google_Patent_Search - but it hasn't killed other sources of free patent information on the web. I assume it's because these sources were already established, had better funding (or commercial revenues), and had higher traffic/usage than Altlaw.

]]> Comment on Holy iPhone App, Batman! by Mike Mintz http://ublawlibrary.wordpress.com/2009/11/06/holy-iphone-app-batman/#comment-581 Mike Mintz Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:16:06 +0000 http://ublawlibrary.wordpress.com/2009/11/06/holy-iphone-app-batman/#comment-581 Thanks for the vote of confidence! It really is a cool app and hopefully just the beginning. Great to see LN getting into this kind of thing and if we get lots of downloads of this app it will justify others in the future. Also, we are looking for suggestions of new apps people would like to see so please share your comments in Connected or on our blog. Thanks! Mike Thanks for the vote of confidence!
