By Jeremy Horn
This weekend, enjoy the first weekend of September, and learn about the limited nature of Google's design patent, marketing lessons from GigaOM and SecondLife that stand the test of time, and the virtual machines of Modular Innovation.

Every week I read thousands of blog posts. Here, for your weekend enjoyment, are some highlights from my recent reading, for you.
