ex: search for "bijin-ga" to get a few dozen results. but to view each, one must click on the first, then click for full-size image, the click back, and back again, then on the second thumbnail, etc.
sure would be nice to click slideshow, to get the full-size image displayed, clicking each fullsize
image to go to the next.
cant it be javascripted by a proxy google frontend? hell of a good way to serve a boatload of ads!

Hmmm. I do need a .NET project to play with and this sounds like a good one. Now to come up with the necessary spare time. I suppose that would mean quitting the halfbakery...never mind.

Google's experimental viewer does a slideshow of webpages that come up as search results, but it doesn't do it for images, or at least not yet - maybe this isn't far away from being baked. (See link.) |

//2008... still no sign// actually it looks like there are several websites that do this. For example google the keywords: 'image' 'search' 'result' 'slideshow' and the first 4 results are implementations of this idea. |

[xaviergisz], any chance prior art litigation? |
|
| |
//any chance prior art litigation// |
|
| |
I'm not quite sure what the question is, but I'll give it a shot. |
|
| |
If gnormal got a patent for this idea (in 2002) he might be able to make them pull down their websites. I don't think any of them are making much money out of this idea though (so any infringement damages would be outweighed by legal costs). |
|
| |
Now that I think about it, I think there was a news story last month about a company threatening lawsuits over a very similar invention... I'll see if I can find it. |
|
| |
Prior art does not require previous patent application, only previous publication of the claims? If anything it would nullify the claims of the litigants mentioned previously. |
|
| |
hmm, I'm having trouble understanding your question. |
|
| |
Yes publications (including websites) can be used to invalidate a patent. Sometimes it can be tricky to use an internet publication as prior art because: a) the publication date of a website is often not clear; and b) internet publications often don't have enough information to be considered an 'enabling disclosure'. |
