All repeat with me: #patents don't mean innovation.
Not all you read in patents will be future technology, not all innovative things end up in patents (the web, QR codes, for example), not all you find in patents is an invention, reading patents teach you nearly nothing about how technology works.
Software patents are mostly crap, and totally useless for developers anyway.
