WHATEVER HAPPENED TO ...?

-

The IPKat has visited many other interesting websites and blogs in the course of his quest for exciting tidbits of intellectual property information to share with his readers. Some of these sites continue to blossom, while others just wither on the vine. Can anyone tell the IPKat whatever happened to

* The Patent Blog and the Copyright Blog: Nothing has been heard of the Patent Blog since 8 October 2003, or of the Copyright Blog since Wednesday 18 February 2004. Both were run by The Intellect Law Group, a small Florida-based law firm.

* Sans Blog: the first dedicated French-language IP blog, this was launched by IP Twins, but hasn't been live since 9 October 2003.

*WordSpy: a wonderful site that features new uses of words and neologisms (including many uses of trade marks and business names), but nothing has been added to it since 13 June 2004.

The IPKat is a curious cat and he'd love to know the following things: (i) have these blogs/websites been abandoned completely or are they just in hibernation? (ii) if they have been abandoned, is anyone else interested in taking them over? Please tell ...

    Hi Jeremy,
    A little word on "Sans blog", the French blog on IP: It was a tentative one, and the authors have unfortunately relinquished this project.
    If you want to read other IP blogs in French, I think you will only find:
    - the Little Trademark Museum, which highlights the exotic, the odd, and the celebrity-owned in trademark filings. Frédéric Glaize, a Trademark Attorney, publishes there the funny TM registrations he finds
    - the Domain Name blog, written by... me, in French and English. You may find there legal news related to domain names.
    If I hear of other IP blogs, I will let you know.

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
