New US IP Law Database

The Law, Science & Technology Program at Stanford Law School launched the Stanford Intellectual Property Litigation Clearinghouse (IPLC), an online database that offers comprehensive information about intellectual property disputes within the United States (in real-time data)

I have used Stanford's other clearinghouse: Securities Class Action Clearinghouse - which is also a great source for research and information (settlements, decsions, news, charts, graphs, etc.).

Another great addition to the world of free legal research.

Comparison of Legislative Resources

GPO Access is putting themselves (and other federal information sources) to the test with their new "Comparison of Legislative Resources on GPO Access and Selected Government
and Non-Government Web Sites" avaiable at:
http://fedbbs.access.gpo.gov/library/compare/compr5.pdf

Included is THOMAS, the House of Representatives web site, the Senate web site,
THOMAS, HeinOnline, Lexis-Nexis Congressional, and Westlaw.

Direct access to charts containing the results for the non-government sites can be found at
