New IP Blogs

There are a few new IP blogs that may pan out as great resources.

• Cory Hojka, who had several guest posts here at Patently-O has started CopyBites, a blog dedicated to issues of Copyright law.
• Professor Raymond Nimmer has started a blog on IP Licensing. Link.
• The Hope firm in Atlanta has started the Patent Prosecution Blog. Link.
• The Weintraub firm in Sacramento has started the IP Law Blog. Link.

Of course, these will not replace the old standby sites anytime soon.  Here are some of the IP Blogs that I visit regularly (in random order):

• Invent Blog (Nipper)
• Media Law (Kirkman)
• Promote The Progress (Buchanan)
• I/P Updates (Heinze)
• Under The Sun (Krajec)
• IP Litigation (Mann)
• Baristas (Albainy-Jenei, Schnapp)
• Patent Pending (Shaver)
• PHOSITA (Sorocco)
• 271–Blog (Zura)
• TTABlog (Welch)
• Confusion (Coleman)
