All menu-based sites covered by SBC patents?

Posted on January 23, 2003 by Jason Murphy

Interesting legal case, as [url=http://www.sbc.com]SBC[/url] (we should DOS them) claims that they have the [url=http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/28985.html]patent rights[/url] to any frame or menu based navigational system. Appearantly, they are requesting [url=http://www2.museumtour.com/sbc.html]royalty fees of 2%[/url] of total revenue of any site that uses such navigation methods.

Not happy with the street smarts of their legal counsel. When will they learn?

a little byte is a lot

Nice up on the Geekware!! I’ve been looking for a good one and other blogs like Thatware, PHPSlash, Nukes (I agree, they don’t deserve links), PHPWidgets (still shows potential), and even grandaddy PERL Slashcode. After all this, I show up to the PUG for the first time and BAM, Geeklog, what I’ve been looking for, right in front of me. Definitely glad I came. I will be pushing a few blogs in the next couple of months, good to see something with some flexibility.

Also, have some suggestions/requests/ideas/whatever, probably post when the weekend hits. Brain is fried in middle of week.

Again, Nice up on the Geekware!
