The Apple iPad 2 was launched by the so-called "rockstar CEO" Steve Jobs today in San Francisco to a broad reception of live blogging, tweeting and "cloud" participation online. It will give shareholders a brief moment of comfort to see that Steve is still fit and well despite his medical leave. While there has been a lot of on...

UK politicians often accuse the banks of failure to innovate in payments. The UK Payments Council was at least partly created and empowered to change this position but has so far failed to make its presence felt. So what's gone wrong? Firstly, the basic premise is deeply flawed. The UK payments industry is very innovative. Over the last twenty y

In this ahort ZeusiLeaks file I’ll talk about why it’s not a good idea if you’re a public company and your PR agency has Zeus infected machines during earning season… Quick reminder: WikiLeaks, the largest leak of data the world has seen?

So how do you answer the question of the Consumerisation Model for smartphones? Well Research In Motion (RIM) seems to have a response for the ever-expanding BlackBerry (and soon to be PlayBook carrying) public.

Everyday we’re making choices in the digital and physical worlds between one brand and another. Sometimes we choose a brand because they provide us with great service, but sometimes it’s simply because they provide adequate service and there isn’t really a better option.

2019: What we did to fight APTs The 1982 masterpiece Blade Runner by Ridley Scott is one of my old time favorites. Harrison Ford chases androids in a futuristic, visually stunning Los Angels.
