with zoom, page scrolling, drawings, internal search, and other patents that
reference the current one. Here is the drawing of H. K. Markey (aka the actress
Hedy Lamarr) and George Antheil's 1941 patent for a "secret communication
system" that used a new concept: frequency hopping.

Google Patent Search

810g Search: Google Blog Search is a direct competitor with Technorati, until now
the big dog on the blog search block. Despite all the chatter about them, blogs are
still kind of mysterious and confusing in part because there are lots of things called
blogs that don't fit the earlier definition. Blogs originally referred to on-line personal
journals, often updated daily, but now everything using RSS or Atom (XML formats
for distributing newsfeeds) seems to be considered a blog. Therefore, blog search
engines generally restrict themselves to indexing and searching for anything that
uses a site feed. Google Blog Search is no exception. The new Google Blog Search
FAQ says, "The goal of Blog Search is to include every blog that publishes a site
feed (either RSS or Atom)." [emphasis added] This means that Google Blog Search
defines "blog" as any site with an XML site feed, and that is fine as long as we know
what we're getting. However, Google Blog Search is apparently excluding feeds from
news sources to try to prevent overlap between Google News and Blog Search.
