Damn phones. Somebody should really work on that voice recognition and context-awareness. ;>))
Meant to say thank you sman and all contributors.. great lawyering and judicial prowess....sheesh.
Fair enough yes. We will see where the chips fall. Hoping for the best.
P.S. All should read the transcript imo. Great layering and great judicial prowess on display.
Thanks small and all contributors.
Well, please post the follow -on text where the judge says, "you like it?"
As in, "really". I understand where you both are coming from and the actual claim construction is not bad IMO, but I am cocerned there is still too much wiggle room for the Schanburg's of the world and those sure to follow via IPR etc etc.
Cheers
I really thought that Miss Schanburg made her strongest points regarding our social templates and social hierarchy. The judge unfortunaly had a difficult time understanding there could be a hierarchy of information. Miss Schanburg Was effective in leading the judge to believe that it was difficult or impossible to have a hierarchy or social hierarchy of information but that that could only refer to a social hierarchy of people. This is where I thought mr. Handle was somewhat ill-prepared and did a rather poor job or maybe a less than spectacular job of explaining our position. The patents clearly spell this out in this regard, but although it was perceived as a minor thing in the circumstances I feel it is at the heart of the entire patent suite but as the judge indicated at one point, this entire proceeding is predicated on minor things but collectively they add up to very important characterization of the patents.
It seemed to me that all Tony had to do was to emphasize that the information hierarchy and the social hierarchy become part and parcel of the same thing and I thought he failed to do that clearly. The judge , Who I like very much will be able to make these connections on his own although he seemed very sympathetic to Schanburg's argument. Overall, this non-lawyer thought that things went fairly well but of course could have been better.
Disch, the point would be this crowd should never have to raise the issue because most folks doing a website set this "under construction" notifications as a matter of course so yeah, why not us?
....If this future comes to pass, it’ll be thanks to the box of sensors slung around your neck masquerading as your ID. These "sociometric badges" already exist, created by a Boston-based company called Humanyze. Using a combination of microphones, infrared sensors, accelerometers, and Bluetooth, they measure wearers’ movements, face-to-face (and badge-to-badge) encounters, speech patterns, vocal intonations, and even posture to measure office statistics, like who’s really talking to whom, for how long, and where.
THE QUANTIFIED ORG
Armed with this information, clients such as Bank of America and Deloitte are in turn mapping these office behaviors to the metrics that matter: sales, revenues, retention rates. You may have already met your quantified self; now say hello to the quantified org....
