Ownership of Extinct Trade Names

[Bongolation]

Products, companies, publications...long gone.

It seems like someone usually still owns the rights to the name, but obviously not always.

Is there an online way to find out?

Thanks!

Try using one for your company, and see who sues you.

I think it's registered trade marks or trade names, not copyright.
