Having authored some patent applications in the US around business processes for internet commerce, I was always a little bothered by the practice. A quite good patent law blog has a solid write-up on how the US Patent and Trademark Office is looking at the appropriate scope for providing patents in the area of business process. Although it’s not quite written for a lay audience, it’s relatively accessible.
Although in traditional business channels, there are a myriad of ways to put up protective walls to impede competition, it’s more difficult to do so on the Net. Just have to build better products.
