Google launches Patent search

Nice! Would the next step be to convert “mumbo jumbo” in a patent text to a simple summary?

IMHO, the quality of patents awarded by USPTO has raised serious questions and greatly undermined real novel ideas, for example, see Method of swinging on swing and Method of exercising a cat. Many more at PatentlySilly. However, there is still some hope, as the patent quality problem is well recognised and efforts are underway to address this problem, for example, see Patent review goes Wiki and Community Patent Review.

For new patents see FreshPatents.
