Google Granted Identity Management Patent
I read an interesting article over the weekend describing how Google was granted a patent for identity management.
The article is Google Granted Pseudonym Patent (You’re Welcome. And, What Is Wrong With You), and the patent is US 8,271,894 – Social computing personas for protecting identity in online social interactions.
I am sure that there is novelty destroying prior art that has been previously published!
