Just that, really.

I've had an idea for a service and I want to know if I can patent the idea before I approach companies?

Goes through what you can patent and if you should patent.

Might be of some use.

Hunker - did you get anywhere with this? I have an idea too, but don't know how to go about protecting it. The website doesn't offer any easy answers really, does it?
