Trademarking can be complex, but a normal human can usually handle it. That is, no special education (legal) required. The trickiest part may be defining your category. It can be done online through the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. There is a fee, so be prepared to use credit card or go the more time-consuming print route. http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/teas/index.jsp Hope this helps, Ed ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christian Lagier" <clagier at gmail.com> To: <Hidden-discuss at lists.hidden-tech.net> Sent: Tuesday, July 05, 2011 11:15 AM Subject: [Hidden-tech] Trademarking > > > Hi Hidden-Tech'ers > Do any of you have recommendations regarding Trademarking (domestic > scope only)?
