Patents Gone Wild


Some ideas are best kept a secret, not always to protect their integrity but sometimes to protect the integrity of the inventor. 

I happened to stumble across the "Totally Absurd" website (http://totallyabsurd.com/archive.htm) that has an archive of ridiculous Patents that have actually been lodged and paid for by inventors (hopefully not industrial designers) in the US.

This picture above is one of many - entitled "Doggie Umbrella". Have a laugh going through some of them - it might just make you realise that that crazy idea of yours isn't that crazy after all.
