Patent Searching For New Inventors - Searching By Keyword
By Mary Bellis, About.com
Get yourself a pen or pencil and paper. Think of all the words that you can use to describe an invention and write them down. Try to think of words that uniquely describe a certain invention and not words that could describe anything. Try for one word, two words or more to describe an invention.
