I posted a week ago about a couple of new Google trademarks (technically they’re called service marks) and I thought it would be interesting to see if I could find any new service marks that Yahoo had filed for with the US Patent and Trademark Office.
Here’s what I found. What new services or programs (if any) they might be telegraphing is (of course) to be determined.
A selected list of words and phrases that Yahoo has filed for service marks with the USPTO, 2004-Present:
+ “COVER ART”
This filing was made with the USPTO less than a month ago.
+ “PEARL HUNTER”
Also filed for less than a month ago.
+ YAHOO 360
Filed for at beginning of March.
Selected 2004 Filings from Yahoo
+ “LIFE IS ALL AROUND YOU. YOU JUST NEED TO FIND IT”
+ “EVEN WHEN YOU’RE OUT, YOU’RE IN”
+ “DIGDIG”
+ “Y20”
+ “SMARTFIT”

Marking 10 years of DuckDuckGo: from search engine to privacy company
We mark 10 years of DuckDuckGo: from search engine to privacy company. DuckDuckGo doesn't track searches, doesn't create user profiles, and shows the same results to everyone. It reveals pages on which you'll be tracked and scores them for privacy. In light of recent privacy scandals, we may just need more companies like DuckDuckGo, who are working to make the internet a safer, more transparent, space – one that is led by the rights of users, rather than the desires of advertisers.
