This blog, which is new to me, addresses that murky area where enterprise, information technology and health care overlap. Some good content, including especially this item, which asserts, bluntly: "If you don’t have the financial resources to support years and years of patent litigation, then your patents have no teeth." Well argued, observing that "Large companies have no problem violating your patents" and "Big Companies don’t have much of a disincentive not to violate your patents." Oh yeah, and from another post: "“NDAs are a) unenforceable and b) even suggesting an NDA makes you look like a complete idiot." Heh.CRLF
