Google Patent Search Update

You may wonder why there is such a long lull since the last post.  This is because we have been working very hard to get WizPatent Express ready for release.  The software is a lite version of WizPatent Manager and works seamlessly with Internet Explorer. Two things happened just as we were ready to release the software in December 2006.

Firstly, Google Patent Search was released and we felt we have to make the software fully compatible with Google Patent Search.  Google Patent Search has excellent search and viewing capability but has no provision for saving search results, download or print patent document.  We do one better.  We are making saving search results, download or print patent document possible for you on Google Patent Search.

Secondly, Microsoft released IE 7 in January.  Not only that, IE 7 is a suggested update which means the update reminder for IE 7 keep popping up on your computer.  We feel that we have to make our software compatible with IE 7.  The problem is the multi-tab feature in IE 7 threw a monkey wrench in our code.  We spent the better part of the last 6 weeks re-working the codes.  The situation is made worst by the fact that Microsoft staff we have contacted was not helpful in getting our issues resolved.  So we have become experts in controlling tabs in IE 7 and we now know all about manipulating tab handles....

Believe me this is worth your wait.  In addition we have also made WizPatent Express compatible with FreePatentsOnline.  This is the fastest growing patent portal in the last 2 years.  Check us out at www.WizPatent.com .
