Hotels.com is generic for…. what exactly?

Hotels, of course.

But read this whole item on the TTABlog. It’s a half a primer on the law of trademark in our time.

UPDATE: Does my Old Post Promoter thing know when something’s bubbling up again on the Web? Or is this just a coincidence?

The Title, the Blog and the Blogger

The question of whether consumers are likely to be confused is the signal inquiry that determines if a trademark infringement claim is valid. I write here about trademark law, copyright law, brands, free speech (mostly as it relates to the Internet) and legal issues related to blogging. That may sound like a lot, but it's just a blog.

As for me, I'm Ron Coleman, a commercial litigator with a special interest in copyright and trademark law and free speech. I was also the lead lawyer for The Slants, The Band Who Must Not be Named.
