CNN will be using Google Glass for citizen journalism. “The network already has an established citizen journalism platform called iReport which now makes it way to Google Glass.

Now available: a new search engine for patent, litigation, and entity information (PRESS RELEASE.) “With this free search engine, any company can quickly and accurately search RPX’s proprietary database for patents related to litigations, look up co-defendants in a patent litigation, understand litigation campaigns, and create custom alerts to assess and monitor the potential risk they face from non-practicing entities (NPEs), also known by the ‘patent troll’ moniker…. RPX Search provides companies with access to all US patents and applications, every patent litigation filed in a US district court since 2000, and all patent owners and parties in litigations in a searchable, cross-referenced database. The powerful search engine allows users to research current and past patent market data to better understand their patent risk, especially as the threat of NPEs continues to grow for every provider of a technology-based product or service.”
