Article of the Week: The Coming Software Patent Apocalypse

Title: The Coming Software Patent Apocalypse

Author: Jeff Attwood

Description: Jeff writes about why he, and others, feel that the software industry should not be patentable.

My Favorite Quote:

"Think about that for a minute. Seriously think about it. Every time you write code -- even a brand new algorithm in a clean room environment-- you could be infringing a patent, somehow, somewhere."
