As a programmer myself I am always angered when software patents are issued.

The Amazon.com "one click" order is an obvious thing to add to a website, but still amazon has a patent to it!

There is a great website here about it:

I wonder if someone has patented adding photos to a website? If not I think I will be writing an patent application. It will be accepted for sure, since almost all software patents applied for, no matter how silly, get approved.
