Editor's Blog: CIO Insights
New year, new ideas from silicon.com

By Steve Ranger

Published: Tuesday 06 January 2009

Happy New Year to you all! Sometimes it can seem a little miserable, braving the arctic conditions to get back into the office in gloomy, early January after the fun of Christmas, so I'm pleased we can start the year with some great news - we've launched a new site section called silicon.com CIO Insights.

silicon.com is well known for its strong relationships with the CIO community in the UK, and the aim of this new section is to bring together some of the fantastic content from across silicon.com which is not just about but also by CIOs.

While you will continue to find world-class news, comment and analysis across silicon.com that will be useful to all our readers - whatever their job title - in the CIO Insights section you will find the voices of the CIOs themselves. They will give their take on the issues that matter, whether it is in the form of exclusive interviews or our famous CIO Jury, or from our outspoken Naked CIO and other IT director columnists. You can check out the new section here.

In the same part of the site you'll also find the new, updated CIO Jury section which brings together all of our CIO Jury stories in one place (there's a couple of hundred of them in there) so you can find out exactly what the UK's best and brightest tech leaders think about subjects as wide ranging as women in IT, Windows Vista, the Facebook generation and open source - and those were only in the last few months. You can find the new homepage for CIO Jury here.

And if you are a CIO or head of IT with opinions you want to share, then join the CIO Jury by dropping a line to editorial@silicon.com.

Each CIO Jury story is now illustrated with a jury graphic on this page so you can find out how many of the IT chiefs voted for - and against - the issue at a glance. It also gives you a chance to find out which stories have proved most interesting (or controversial) with the silicon.com audience, and those that attracted the most comments.

The third element to the new section is the CIO Interviews page which brings together the best of our interviews with the UK's top technology chiefs - check out the latest with Matthew Oakeley, Schroders CIO.

Please take a tour of the new section - we're really proud of it and I hope you like it too. Please do drop us a line and let us know what you think.
