Software patents belong in a trophy case
This article states that most software companies use patents as trophies in their case, as they continually innovate their products -- and that patents won't be useful to them. Patent reform is coming, they say -- but is it truly? Software patents are truly an experiment, and will they last? The IP system certainly requires tweaking, or the practice of the the current IP system requires tweaking. Law always lags practice. Perhaps practice should change now, and law then change?
