Most of us are familiar with Jeff Bezos as Amazon's caudillo. It turns out Mr. B. also has a touch of the inventor in him.
A report in geekwire.com noted that Bezos applied for a patent involving smartphones and information sharing via audio signals. The current standard, known as "bumping," would presumably be the target of Bezos' proposed "innovation."
What's remarkable is that the Amazon CEO has enough time on his hands to tinker in the lab. Perhaps that explains why he rarely talks to the media, shareholders, or (heaven help us) Amazon customers.
In case you're wondering, Bezos is the sole inventor listed on the patent application. Well, at least one can't accuse the caudillo of false modesty.
