Issue #26

Welcome to another issue of On the Pulse, the eNewsletter to keep you up to date with IT related news.

In this month's issue we look at the reasons companies are still shying away from e-commerce even though it's what they really want and how phishing e-mails have dropped dramatically over the past year.  We'll take a look at how business is seriously looking at the benefits of Facebook and finally whether Google is losing its grip on the Search Engine market.

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!
