Web Session Patent Awarded

Posted by Scott on June 3, 2007

I just found out that the U.S. Patent office issued patent number 7,188,176 naming me as primary inventor for an “Apparatus, system, and method for maintaining a persistent data state on a communications network”. I’m pretty stunned. I did the work for this back in 1998 for Priceline and they filed for the patent in 2000. So, I guess I’m now “officially” an Inventor.

Congrats Scott! Priceline’s website is still running strong on PSession.

Congrats, the only thing I invented was the crispy cream donut and rocky road ice cream sandwich. It helped no one but the morbidly obese.
