New search patents and IBM
The online search market is currently booming and dominated by the big three companies of google, Yahoo, and MSN search. As they continue to vie to increase market share, their continuing development has seen a string a new patents awarded and filed, as Gary Price helpfully and clearly lists in New Patents for Google, IBM, Yahoo & Others at the Search Engine Watch blog.
Almost suprisingly, IBM continue to collect a string of significant patents, and in IBM and Search, the technology giant is reported as making strong moves that could see it as a possible entrant in the search engine war - not least with it's Piquant and Webfountain search technologies.
