Where’s events and newsbits gone?
We’re changing Computanews slightly from this month by not publishing events or newsbits. Why? Well, we can free up a bit more room for longer articles because events and news is covered in full in our monthly London ICT e-Bulletin. If you’re not already getting this, sign up now!

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the write up of the book. Would love to do an event around it together if we can figure that out.
Holly – we’re on it. Maybe we could hook up for a webinar or even an old fashioned workshop next time you’re in the UK?
