Cingular to Patent =(

01/27/2006 10:00 AM

It looks like Cingular Wireless is trying to patent the emoticon. The patent number is US2006015812 (if you want to look it up). I hope that they don't get it. That is just too unbelievable to think they might get it.

I read that Despair Inc tried that. I don't know if it was a joke or not.
