Cameron's colossal creation was not the only holiday hit with long legs. This weekend, two films in their third week kept luring moviegoers at a healthy pace. Sherlock Holmes took in $16.6 million, for a $165.2 million total, and Alvin squirreled away $16.3 million, for a cumulative $178.2 million. The holdovers had such an edge over newcomers that Hollywood should consider establishing a tier system, like in the English football leagues, with the big Christmastime films at the Premier level and the January releases competing among themselves in a lower group...

That vaulted it past three of the four other billion-dollar movies: The Dark Knight, the second episode of Pirates of the Caribbean and the conclusion to the Lord of the Rings trilogy are now in Avatar's dust. Again, only Titanic, at $1.8 billion, remains...

Since opening its first emerging-markets operations centers in China and Uruguay in 2002, TCS's annual revenues from Latin America, the Middle East and the Asia-Pacific region have surged from $160 million to $1.2 billion, or about 20% of total sales. "The investments we've made in emerging markets have all reached a critical size," says TCS's Chandrasekaran. TCS discovered that its expansion has opened up new opportunities to lure business from international clients. After struggling to convince Spanish companies to outsource to India, TCS found them much more comfortable outsourcing...

...change the way we go about surfing it. A little more than a year ago, it launched the beta version of Google Chrome for Windows. It was simple, clean and fast. In December the company released Chrome for Mac and Linux, which helped catapult the browser past Safari in total market share. It now trails only Firefox and the ultimate preloader, Explorer...
