I think the point is: this patent should never have been granted. It's absurd.

From legal notices, to birth records, to death notices, to marriage licenses, to
business creations -- items have been posted for the public for CENTURIES in
newspapers, tablets, papyrus, stone etchings, etc.
Just because we're doing it on the internet or with a computer does not mean
we're doing anything inventive.
This is PURE garbage.

It opens up the whole universe of "on a social web site!" to things
that formerly were struggling along with nothing more trumpet-worthy than
"on a computer!"
In my disgust, I shall present to you my own new invention: a method and process
for announcing, ON A SOCIAL WEB SITE, the finding of a lost kitten or puppy,
which has been identified with a tag or microchip allowing the owner's contact
information to be found. I grant this invention to the citizens of the world via
this publication, with date and time as stamped above, and this note to serve as
prior art against any claimant of rights to the said invention; this being
necessary only because the granters of said rights consistently maintain a
posture cranially recursed into their gastrointestinal tracts such that they
have never observed the prior art posted on 20% of the suburban telephone poles
on the planet.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

"It won't check copyrighted documents"
So it's useless then, as all documents are copyrighted on creation.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
