The housing crisis still has a choke hold on America: In September, 81,312 homes were lost to foreclosure according to RealtyTrac, an online marketer of foreclosed properties.

Online auto marketer Autobytel announces a 35 percent cut in its workforce and the hiring of an investment banker to explore such options as a potential sale of the company.

Foreclosures continue to soar, with 220,000 homes lost to bank repossessions in the second quarter of this year, according to the latest statistics from RealtyTrac, an online marketer of foreclosed homes.

That's nearly triple the number from the same period in 2007.
