A Banner Year for IP Newsflash

It's been a great year for IP Newsflash, since Rolf Claessen redesigned his popular intellectual property news aggregator and added a lot of new features and tools. Handy stuff. IP Newsflash is an IP meta-information portal that browses your information channels for you and presents only relevant, recent and customizable IP information on a single page.  Accolades for IP Newsflash have been rolling in since the redesign. See what some of the leading intellectual property bloggers have been saying about IP Newsflash.

When Rolf Claessen launched his new and improved meta-information portal, we added links to it in the sidebar of the Securing Innovation blog and on the homepage of IP.com, which quickly became one of the top sites sending visitors to IP Newsflash. We learned that our readers, and customers and clients of IP.com, were very interested in accessing the latest information and news about intellectual property. So, as we always do, we're giving them more of what they need.

Recently, we added a banner graphic to the home page of IP.com, providing visitors with easier access to IP Newsflash. Great internet real estate, we know. It reflects the value we see in aggregating the latest news and information about intellectual property for our readers, our clients, and ourselves, as IP professionals. We've also added a large banner to the sidebar of this blog (scroll down) pointing to IP Newsflash, which is a helpful reminder to us and an easy link for our readers to find the latest breaking news about intellectual property.

Tom Colson, the CEO of IP.com Inc. has written here about the good chemistry with Rolf Claessen, and we were pleased to find our high regard and warm feelings were mutual when we met in person at the INTA annual meeting in Seattle recently. There, we decided to continue to build more bridges to strengthen our good relationship and provide even stronger links between our sites for the benefit of our readers, who have shown they appreciate what we have to offer.

News Flash! IP Newsflash Gets New Look

IP Newsflash is an IP meta-information portal that browses your information channels for you and presents only relevant, recent and customizable IP information on a single page. Described by its creator, patent attorney Rolf Claessen:

IP Newsflash is for time-hungry patent professionals who want to stay up to date but dislike the tedious task of browsing through countless sources of information. This website brings to you news as well as notices and caselaw from the most important patent offices and courts on one single page.
When IP Newsflash first launched, it got rave reviews from some of the most respected patent law bloggers, including Steve Nipper at the Invent Blog, Dennis Crouch at Patently-O, Stephen Albainy-Jenei at Patent Baristas, and Rodney Cruise at IP Menu. The new look and feel is even better.

There's a link to the new and improved IP Newsflash website in the IP Resources listed in the sidebar of our Securing Innovation blog, too, among other helpful links to web sites and blogs we recommend to our readers. Check 'em out.
