The Patent Pal Toolbar

If you like toolbars, you'll love the free Patent Pal from Jay Wahlquist of Fogg & Powers.

It supports over 20 unique patent related searches, including Google Patents, FreePatentsOnline, Esp@cenet, WIPO, Pat2Pdf, the MPEP, and many more listed on the screenshots page. It also includes links to other useful resources for both US and foreign patent practice, such as links to every major patent office in the world and various ppatent law journals. And, perhaps best of all, the Patent Pal provides a convenient interface for receiving RSS feeds from popular patent related blogs like this one.

"Nice work, and definitely worth checking out. Thanks Jay!" -- Gary Odom at The Patent Prospector
