The Scramble for Software Patents
It takes years to conceptualize and develop software products, but not much effort to replicate the software if it has not been patented. A significant part of the intellectual property of a software product is exposed on the release of the new product.

Patenting - An Overview For New Inventors
If you are serious about an idea and want to see it turned into a fully fledged invention, it is essential to obtain some form of patent protection, at least to the 'patent pending' status.
