My thanks go out to Michael Atkins of seattletrademarklawyer.com fame for his warm welcome on his blog today. He along with others (you know who you are) have set a blogging standard in this little niche area of the law to which I will strive to uphold.
Coincidentally, I was going to write a blog entry earlier this week describing the differences between trademarks, copyrights, and patents -- but Mr. Atkins beat me to it. In order to avoid any further allegations of creating a likelihood of confusion given my choice of domain names, I chose to write about something else and graciously defer to to his blog entry entitled "What Is a Trademark? How Does It Differ from a Copyright and a Patent?"
