Your domain is my domain...until it isn't
Posted on December 04, 2008While on the topic of domain names and since we are digging in the archives.Here is a report of a decision from the Alberta Court of Queens Bench (actual case can be found here). It seems a former employee, displeased...
Make sure your domain name is your domain
Posted on December 04, 2008I saw this article many moons ago but never posted a link to it....so I am doing so now.A neat article on domain law in Canada. I have never heard of the lawyer who was interviewed, but he sounds like...
How to design something and (hopefully) make money from it
Posted on October 21, 2008The road from "eureka" to riches is long and sometimes perilous. Here are a few quick tips and thoughts for those starting out.
The lion, the witch....and the bludgeon?
Posted on July 21, 2008Here is a good story. Parents give their 11 year old boy a unique gift - the domain name "Narnia.mobi". An unwanted by-product of that was a complaint by the estate of C.S. Lewi. The demand? Take it down! And...
Holey Croc - is it a knockoff?
Posted on July 02, 2008Everyone knows what Crocs look like - even if you hate them as an abomination of fashion (as I do), they are so prevalant that virtually anyone who goes out in public will have seen them by now. Anything successful...
Dragon's Den
Posted on May 30, 2008Some, if not most, people in Canada have heard of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's television show called Dragon's Den. Well, the next season of the show is almost upon us and they are looking for potential candidates. Being a big...
Three stripes and you are out
Posted on May 20, 2008Not that it really needs to be repeated....but trade-marks really have value. Just ask Payless shoes. A jury in Oregon recently ordered Payless shoes to pay Adidas (my favourite brand) over 300 million in damages for trade-mark violations involving the...
What is old, is new....
Posted on May 09, 2008Last night I discovered something I thought was quite interesting. The British have made all proceedings/case at the Old Bailey (London's central criminal court) for the period from 1674 to 1913 available online. It is fascinating to go back and...
The apple of my eye-p (intellectual property)
Posted on May 08, 2008I was listening to CBC radio this morning on my way in to work and there was a story on the apple growing industry in Nova Scotia. Anyone who has been here will know that the area called the Annapolis...
Why write?....to get it right, that's why
Posted on April 28, 2008I was re-reading some older cases today and came across an interesting one from late 2006 that I think illustrates several important points business people need to consider when they enter into a business relationship with other parties, and particularly...
When is a whisky not a whisky?
Posted on April 21, 2008It is a sad day ?. No not because the Montreal Canadians are going to get eliminated from the Stanley Cup play-offs tonight (not that I care all that much one way or the other ? except that I will...
Protection of aboriginal intellectual property
Posted on March 31, 2008Well, since it is the last day of March, the day before April Fool?s Day, I thought I would write an article. Something I have been thinking about for some time actually. I read, in some journal or other, about...
New Industrial Design Database
Posted on December 05, 2007This may only be of interest to lawyers or people creating products, but I'll post about it anyway. The Canadian Intellectual Property Office now has a fully searchable database for industrial designs registered in Canada. The database is complete from...
Open source code...
Posted on December 04, 2007Many people have heard of open source code and some will have heard of the licensing regime that follows much of that code - the essence of the regime is that if you use the open source code (ie. code...
Useful (and not so useful) knowledge...at your fingertips
Posted on November 28, 2007This site is very interesting. An online library, full of useful and not so useful information (care to know all there is to know about ancient archery?). Called the Universal Digital Library, it purports to have over 1.5 million works...
Infernal machines, or, change is inevitable
Posted on November 21, 2007Here is a video. I warn you, it is 19 minutes long, but it is worth every minute. The speaker is Larry Lessing, a law professor at Stanford University. The essential point of his presentation (which you really should watch)...
Stop thief!
Posted on November 20, 2007Well, first we had a real murder over virtual property. A chap in Hong Kong was obviously very annoyed when another person "sold" a virtual sword he had borrowed from the first person. The sword only existed inside the virtual...
Google, the iPod, the hydrogen fuel cell....and Nova Scotia
Posted on November 05, 2007Virtually un-reported (as with many success stories arising from Atlantic Canada - and Canada to a lesser extent) is the recent (October) award given to Dr. Abbey Kirumira and Hermes Chan. The former is now the head of Biomedica Diagnostics...
