>Looks like the other shoe just fell The patent application was filed Sept. 13, 2005 and was published March 15, 2007 - two and a half months before the Feedburner acquisition was publicly announced. Negotiations must have been in the works and pretty well worked out prior to the publication date. Google seems to have developed a strategically designed pattern of dropping the first shoe (i.e. Patent app publication), letting it sink in for a while, and then dropping the other shoe.
