Cameroon moved to a nine-digit numbering system at midnight on 21 November. Cameroon Telecomunications network operators have been on a continued addition of digits to telephone numbers in the last few years, having passed to 7 digits in 2001 and to 8 digits in 2007. The rise in subscribers at Orange and MTN, as well as the market entry of Nexttel has accelerated demand. Operators informed their customers by SMS that they will have to use the prefix 6 to call their numbers. Fixed-line operator Camtel said consumers will have to use 243 instead of 22 or 33 to call its numbers.

The website, with the iconic blue and white theme, could enable users to chat with colleagues, connect with work contacts and collaborate on documents as with Google Drive and Microsoft applications.

The company is said to be building the network in the hope that employers will allow "Facebook at Work" - as the project is currently called - as many block or discourage workers from accessing the original site during business hours.

New users are also believed to potentially benefit from their clients and senior colleagues not being able to scroll through their non-professional information such as their opinionated status updates and personal photos.

“The new site will look very much like Facebook – with a newsfeed and groups – but will allow users to keep their personal profile with its holiday photos, political rants and silly videos separate from their work identity,” reported the Financial Times.

The service is believed to be made free-of-charge initially with advertising revenue funding the operation. The company was reported to be worth $200 billion in September.

Facebook, headed by Mark Zuckerberg with more than 1 billion people signed up worldwide, is said to be now building the site in their London offices and trialling a pilot service with companies ahead of its launch in the near future.

It is not yet known when the launch will go ahead and Facebook have yet to reply to the Independent's request for comment.

Facebook was founded in 2004 as a university-only social network before expanding its client base to 1.35 billion active monthly users worldwide, as of September this year.
