Name lawsuit prompts AppleSoup to become Flycode

Article Abstract:

AppleSoup, an Internet start-up that offers 'copyright-friendly' content sharing technology, has decided to change its name rather than face a suit filed by Apple Computer for the unauthorized use of the Apple identity. The board decided to adopt the name Flycode, which reflects the Internet company's audience composed of 18- to 24-year-old male college students with a predilection for pop culture and computers.

Online workers' windfall could flatten investors

Article Abstract:

Stock options freely given to Internet workers in exchange for below- market salaries could potentially dilute the value of shares owned by Internet investors. A study of the USA Today Internet 100 index companies by Strategic Compensation Research Associates (SCRA) revealed that workers converting their options into new shares will dilute the price of current shares by an average of 24% in less than four years.
