Appeal No. 2003-0050
Application 09/240,208
plurality of URLs on the web site. Although Dedrick matches a
user’s profile to specific advertisements, there is no teaching
that the user’s profile is determined by the process recited in
independent claims 1 or 8. The examiner’s attempt to equate the
interest levels of Dedrick to the claimed qualification levels
fails because there is no suggestion in Dedrick that the interest
levels were obtained in the manner in which the qualification
levels of claims 1 and 8 are obtained. Therefore, visitors in
Dedrick are not associated with qualification levels in the same
manner as recited in the claimed invention.
Since we have not sustained the examiner’s rejection of
independent claims 1 and 8, we also do not sustain the examiner’s
rejection of any of the claims which depend therefrom.
