JEEVES PEEVED

musicbank.net


The estate of author PG Wodehouse, creator of the butler Jeeves, has begun legal proceedings against AskJeeves.com, the search engine for people who can't use search engines. Their case looks pretty patchy given that one cannot trademark character names and the Wodehouse estate owns no trademarks.

But anyone can see why the estate is angry. PG Wodehouse would turn in his grave if he knew his faithful Jeeves has been relegated to answering stupid questons such as "Is Leonardo DiCaprio gay?", "How will I die?" and "Where do I find Hotmail.com?"
