Google Tried to Patent My Work After a Job Interview

Leah Buechley is the PhD advisor, Regina Dugan is Google ATAP, Joi Ito is Media Lab but... who is the first person speaker of the text?

Am I missing something obvious or is it really omitted?

It's very interesting that she is launching the PandaPatents site using her story as the impetus to help people navigate patent law. I haven't had time to look at it, but it sounds like an interesting idea.

I hope this catches on - it looks like there's already a second good story on the HN frontpage, about patent issues with crowdfunding.

I'm always impressed at how big a difference it can make to go from "people know this is a problem" to "there's a central place to see what this problem looks like and how much damage it can cause".
