  • Publication number: 20080114728
    Abstract: For centuries written content has been subject to plagiarism, diminishing the value of the content to owners. This problem has been compounded by networked information spaces such as the Internet where content can be published widely in a very short period of time. The present invention solves one aspect of this problem by showing an information commerce system reliant on the value of content metadata as the goods rather than the actual words within the content. In this way, the content itself remains discoverable on the network while the underlying value is protected by the content owner.
