Trademark and Copyright:
A Trademark identifies the source of goods and services
that a business offers. It can be registered with the
Patent and Trademark Office if it is used in interstate
commerce. It can afford many protections against the use
of your trademark or one that is substantially similar
by others.
Copyright protects your original, creative expression,
reduced to a tangible form (e.g., on paper, disk, hard
drive or digital camera) from being, for example, copied,
distributed, displayed or used to create a new work without
your permission. However, an employer can become the owner
of a copyrighted work produced by his employee.
