Nokia has seen its profit margins drop over the last quarters as handset demand has slumped, and analysts have worried that entering the PC industry, where margins are traditionally razor-thin, could hurt Nokia's profits further.

Facebook to boost staff by 50% in 2009: report - Online social networking site Facebook is looking to expand its staff by as much as 50 percent this year, its chief executive Mark Zuckerberg told Bloomberg news agency in an interview dated August 20.

Inc <YHOO.O> are joining a group of opponents to a class action settlement that gives Google Inc <GOOG.O> the right to digitize millions of books, the companies said on Friday.

Yahoo wins U.S. court ruling over webcasting fees NEW YORK - A federal appeals court in New York ruled that a Yahoo Inc <YHOO.O> Internet radio service is not required to pay fees to copyright holders of songs it plays, a defeat for Sony Corp's <6758.T> <SNE.N> BMG Music. In a case closely watched by the recording industry, the U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a 2007 jury verdict that Launchcast, a webcasting service run by Yahoo's Launch Media Inc unit, did not give listeners enough control to be an "interactive service" that would require the fees. Hollywood playing catch-up with videogames COLOGNE, Germany - Films and videogames would seem a match made in heaven, so why are games based on hit movies so bad? Despite sharing the same demographic of devoted fans, action, sci-fi and fantasy films rarely translate into branded videogame hits. "Movie-based games almost never work. No matter how cool the movie, the game is almost always lame," said Philipp Dollinger, a gamer reviewer for German blog Pressakey.com and one of thousands of gamers swarming the halls of the gamescom trade fair, which runs until Sunday in Cologne. New technology key to gaming sector in downturn COLOGNE, Germany - Luring new audiences by moving away from traditional gaming consoles is more crucial than ever as the downturn curbs consumer spending in a sector once seen as recession-proof, analysts and executives said. The videogames sector at first looked set to ride out the recession as people cut back on going out and sought cheaper entertainment at home. But sales this year have slumped in the important U.S. market.

China Mobile keen on deals with Taiwan firms TAIPEI - China Mobile <0941.HK>, the world's largest mobile carrier, aims to sign a series of deals with key Taiwanese firms this week, helping them gain access into China's rapidly growing telecoms market.
