USPTO Independent Inventors Online Chat Transcripts.
The U.S. Patent Office regularly schedules On-line Chats for independent inventors to ask questions about the patenting process. The transcript from the chat held on February 28th, 2008 is now available here. Transcripts from each of the chats held from October 2004 to the present may be found here.
The next USPTO on-line chat is scheduled for April 15, 2008.
I participated in the February online chat and blogged about it here: http://www.addovere.com/2008/03/16/update-pto-online-sp-chat/. The chat may not have been too helpful, but it was definitely interesting!
