Things we hate about the uspto.gov website - #2



by J Matthew Buchanan




Let the uspto.gov bashing continue. 

One of my biggest pet peeves about the site is the linkfarm structure of several key pages.  Look at the main “Patents” page, for example:

 

ScreenShot001

 

 

 

Is there a better example of a web1.0 linkfarm out there?  I think not.  How is this helpful to anyone?  I use the site all the time and still struggle to find what I’m looking for.

For those of you not familiar with the site, please visit the farm here, so as to see it in all of its glory.
