Suspected PayPal Hackers Seek Deal To Stay Out Of Prison
Scripps Employees Called 'Hackers' For Exposing Massive Security Flaw
Google Squared launches, puts search results in a grid
I tried a search that I thought was right up Google Squared's alley: "current New York Times bestsellers," and the results were a jumble of categories, but no books. "Current box office" returned some recent movies, and some old ones that did really well when they came out. These are the kinds of searches Google Squared could hit a home run with, but it doesn't.
The example searches prove how well Google Squared could really work. Check out some terms like "roller coasters" and "U.S. Presidents" to see some nice glimmers of potential. The ability to customize your own square when no results are returned will also probably lead to much better results.

Good Concept But.....Lacks security, easily redirected to another site without knowledge. Would be nice if WOT or McAfee site advisor worked on it or Google came up with one of their own.....Since it's still in Google Labs I'm sure they will come up with a better SQUARE

Google Squared appears to be similar to my patent application:
Frankly, I am getting a Déjà vu effect while going through the “Google Squared” application because it appears to be very similar in function to my United States patent application which was filed on April 12, 2007 and as publicly disclosed by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on October 16, 2008, when the patent application was published.
My patent application is titled as “Method And System For Research Using Computer Based Simultaneous Comparison And Contrasting Of A Multiplicity Of Subjects Having Specific Attributes Within Specific Contexts” bearing Document Number “20080256023” and Inventor name “Nair Satheesh” which may be viewed at http://patft.uspto.gov/ upon Patent Applications: Quick Search.
Google Squared appears to be using at least some if not many of the same methods and systems as set forth by me more than two years ago in my patent application. In fact there are many more methods and systems disclosed in my patent application which I believe will help resolve certain inaccuracies found in current Google Squared application.
I have issued legal notices to Google through my Patent Attorney in the US but Google has not responded yet to any of my notices.
