This week: Computer Weekly’s quarterly survey of the IT jobs
market, conducted by SSL, reveals that the demand for IT
professionals in financial services is starting to drop, as the
credit crunch causes turmoil in the markets; executive editor Tony
Collins reports that a new national database of confidential
patient records is being opened to access by NHS staff without
professional qualifications; and deputy technology editor John-Paul
Kamath reports that budget airline EasyJet is redesigning its
website using Web 2.0 technologies to allow customers to plan
complete holiday itineraries, rather than just book flights.
