eBay Negotiating Minority Stake in South Koreas GMarket

eBay (NSDQ: EBAY) is in talks to acquire a minority stake in GMarket, a South Korean online auctioneer. The talks are with Interpark Corp., the Korean portal that owns 37 percent of the company.

Mattel Wins Nearly Complete Victory In Copyright Infringement Case Against MGA

July 18, 2008 (FinancialWire) Mattel Inc. (NYSE: MAT) has won a nearly complete victory in its federal copyright infringement case against rival MGA Entertainment Inc. over which toymaker owns the original drawings for the $1 billion-plus Bratz fashion doll franchise. The federal jury found that the creator of the multi-ethnic, big-headed dolls, Carter Bryant, created their characters and the name while he was under contract as a Barbie designer at Mattel.

Ben Morris writes "A recent judgement in the UK courts has forced a former employee to hand over details of his business contacts built up through LinkedIn.com while he was employed by his former company.

Foxconn owns up to dodgy BIOS crippling Linux

The other day I blogged about how the Foxconn G33M-S motherboard didn’t play nicely with Linux because it broke ACPI support. Well, as it turns out the problem isn’t a Foxconn one but it’s down to American Megatrends (AMI) having shipped a defective BIOS. Also, as it turns out, other boards are also affected.

We have tried to get various animals to do our bidding in the past but without much luck. Squirrels are no use as though they are great at fetching stuff, they just can’t sit still which can get annoying.

Blog Post: Who Owns Your CRM Data?

NetSuite offers no out-of-the box relational export, and they make it hard to get your data out of the system through other means. A reasonable person could conclude that NetSuite uses these "features" as sales tactics to lock the user into their system. Other online CRM vendors seem to have a much more reasonable approach to "your" data.
