Short Take: Corbis beefs up offerings
Digital imaging firm Corbis--owned by Bill Gates--has expanded its online offerings to include a fine art and photography store for its merchandise that now reprints works by photographer Ansel Adams and other artists. Banking on a strong emerging market, Gates has heavily backed the Corbis collection that faces stiff competition from oil baron heir Mark Getty's efforts.
