I’m On A Patent. I am Somebody!
Posted by Steve Kremer in 800-2-ChaCha, Strange True News on August 7th, 2008
In the 1979 movie “The Jerk” Steve Martin’s character Navin R. Johnson gets excited when his name is listed in the phone book. He dances around with the phone book yelling “The new phonebooks are here, the new phonebooks are here!” He then looks himself up in the book and proclaims “Here I am, Navin R. Johson. I am somebody!”.
That line in the movie came to mind when I found out today that my name is now part of a published patent application. It’s a techie, geek thing. But I think it’s pretty cool. I am somebody! It’s a pretty obscure patent dealing with search promotion. If you really have some time on your hands you can look it up at the US Patent and Trademark Website. Here a screen capture.
Only problem is. They spelled my name wrong. I’m used to “Kremer” being mis-spelled as “Kramer” or “Cramer” but didn’t expect my middle name to be mis-spelled. My middle name is an old family name: “Maitland”. I was surprised to find the US Patent office listing me as “Maltland”.
Hmm…”Maltland”. First image that popped into my mind was MALT LAND some Beer or Malt Liquor Theme Park. ”Come to MALT LAND, knock back a couple of fourty ounce Colt 45’s ride the Olde English 800 Ferris Wheel!”
Oh well, maybe I can get it corrected before it becomes a full patent.

Loved this Twitter post about ChaCha so much, I printed it and posted it in my cube at work:
“@erindowney someone thought I named my phone ChaCha once because I’m always saying “let’s ask ChaCha.” have you tried ChaCha? it’s awesome”
