The San Francisco-based company said it cut about 56 of its 92 workers and expects to take a charge of about $200,000 from the layoffs, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.

The company, which was worth almost $20 billion at the peak of the dot-com era, nears its end after posting a string of losses and trimming about 3,600 employees over the past four years. Its shares fell almost 40 percent to 23 cents Thursday on news of its impending failure."
