Incoming Lawsuit

by Veyron — published on December 31st, 2008

Yup, just when you though the year was over, news breaks of new fun at the end…  My guess is Linden Labs is up for a lawsuit over this Patent, (US Patent 7,181,690), “System and method for enabling users to interact in a virtual space”.   Process patents in the US have lost recently in the courts, so this might not be very enforceable any more.  Hard to tell.  Ahh, the smell of young lawyers frolicing in the  courts, producing absolutely no economic value….  mmmm.  Now who said they’d be the first ones up against the wall?  :D
