http://www.google.com/patents/

This is a miracle. While the advanced search is not as advanced as the USPTO's one is, everything else about this is better than the USPTO's website. The images actually load quickly. The pages load quickly. Searches load quickly. Wow. What a difference!

This sure would have helped me a few months ago when I made a spreadsheet of most water gun patents. :p

Now that's just awesome...I didn't even expect that they'd be allowed to carry such patent information. But that's the power of a free market, at least sometimes--somebody can probably create a decent "product." Nice find!
