Another launch: Check out the brand new IP Law & Business website, complete with hot pink logo (love it!). It's a great clearinghouse for Incisive Media's intellectual property reporting and is packed with resources. The site highlights the current IPL&B print issue, featuring the "Top 10 Litigation Wins of 2008," and "People" news that Time Warner’s former top patent counsel has defected to Chadbourne & Parke. Also on the site: "Game Hero," by LTN’s own Theodora Blanchfield, about how bringing together Activision's Guitar Hero with Vivendi's World of Warcraft created a video game superstar -- and how IP licensing helps it play the right tunes.
