In this month’s issue we look at how websites are breaking data protection and Companies Act laws and provide a simple overview of exactly what you need to have to be legal.

We’ll see how Google are dealing with the emergence of competition in the guise of Microsoft’s new “Bing” search engine and how Dell are testing the water of the mobile phone hardware market. Security rears its head this week in the guise of a hack on the MI5 website and we look at new product launches from Microsoft and Google.

Finally, Sixth Sense is sponsoring a race team for a second year – find out how they got on at Castle Combe near Bath.

We’ll keep doing our best to make sure we send you genuinely useful snippets and if you have any comments or suggestions for a future article, please drop us a line. And don't forget to tell your friends!
