Leader: The big issues of 2006
Leader The middle of this year saw us launch the third silicon.com section that provides business and technology coverage by homing in on a vertical market. Looking back at 2006 is in many ways about looking forward to 2007. [21 Dec 2006]
Will's Web Watch: Thresher thinking
Comment The margins Threshers will get on wine and champagne will be hit, of course, though arguably not to a point which will see this campaign run at a loss - more a loss leader. And while bringing cash in over the counter is any business's primary... [05 Dec 2006]
Upwardly Mobile: The operators' new clothes
Comment In the fast-moving mobile market, 'follow the leader' isn't good enough anymore. If O2 is to make its 'stick poking' really worthwhile, though, it needs to come up with more of these services and a little less of the follow-the-leader thinking that... [03 Dec 2006]
Leader: Why Vista's going to be a hard sell
Leader Home users have to wait even longer, until January 2007, for the launch of consumer versions of Vista - meaning Microsoft risks missing the all-important Christmas market. From Longhorn to Vista, the journey has been a long one for Microsoft but... [30 Nov 2006]
Leader: The cure for info overload?
Leader A whole software market, called 'business intelligence', or BI, has arisen to help organisations make sense of all this data and get some value out of it. Are you suffering from information overload? You're not alone. [29 Nov 2006]
Leader: Quad-play quandaries
Leader It's a move that has happened in the standalone broadband market, after all - Carphone Warehouse and Sky entered the market, for good or ill, by selling themselves as the cheapest providers around. Last week all eyes were on the to-ing and fro-ing... [20 Nov 2006]
Leader: Videoconferencing stepping up a gear
Leader Whereas HP started shouting about its progress with a customer such as Dreamworks in tow, Cisco has some impressive launch partners who are close to this market - in Europe it had 2e2 and Dimension Data talking about being involved from an early... [24 Oct 2006]
Leader: The drugs don't work
Leader This may well be a case of UK regulators needing to realise that prohibition - or extortionate pricing - can do more harm than good by forcing people to look at obtaining drugs on the black market. Greater international co-operation is required to... [11 Aug 2006]
Leader: Nokia pulls an Apple
Leader Microsoft is going the same way with its first foray into the MP3 player market, the Zune. It would seem Nokia has got into the market when the getting's good. Nokia announced this week it will spend $60m on buying Loudeye, the digital music company. [10 Aug 2006]
Leader: Why CRM fails to deliver
Leader CRM needs to be more than a marketing tool for bringing new products and channels to market, and if that's all an organisation is buying a CRM system for then it's a pretty expensive way to go about it. [08 Aug 2006]
Leader: Why Orange has been a bit green on security
Leader F-Secure needed its investment in mobile security to pay off and as such it has created a market from scratch by over-hyping the problem. Today Orange announced it has struck a deal with F-Secure to provide antivirus protection to mobile phones. [17 Jul 2006]
Leader: Are Macs really more secure?
Leader If they do - in the unlikely event that Apple significantly increases its market share - then we will see which platform is indeed more secure. A call from one antivirus vendor this week, encouraging users to ditch Windows PCs in favour of... [06 Jul 2006]
Leader: CIOs' perceptions of the big vendors
Leader A few days back, this publication - and many others, we presume - was emailed some 'research' from a consultancy, ranking a number of large players in a major tech market. It was interesting enough but while we were treated to a 'top of the table... [22 Jun 2006]
Leader: Why go 'Inside China'?
Leader It is a large nation that represents a tremendous market opportunity. If one thing comes across - from the privileged position of seeing much of Dan's filed copy in advance - it is that China isn't a tech powerhouse (or market) of 1.3 billion. [12 Jun 2006]
Q&A: Microsoft UK head of anti-piracy Michala Alexander
Comment Everyone is always going to pick on the market leader. We are always trying to stay three or four years ahead of the market. Microsoft estimates it loses around £250m annually due to counterfeit and unlicensed software. [22 May 2006]
