Google Patent Search

Google Launches Patent Search

With Google's foray into patent search, the war amongst the search engines has hottened up. Though there are a few free patent search engines available, Google as usual intends to rule the roost.

You can access Google Paent Search.

There are FreePatentsOnline and PatentReader, as well as the venerable USPTO search that have the first mover advantage and good user base but then Google has the resources and the w...i...d...e...s...t reach!

It will be interesting to see how these patent search engines fare in the war with Google... or who knows, Google just might decide to acquire one of the existing patent search engines (the ones that do not belong to the governmet, of course) to supplement its database and get the user base!

Very plausible, no? ;-)

Any which way... Yahoo and MSN must be getting worried, with their management having nightmares and losing sleep over the new development!
