Welcome to the new-look Computer Weekly, which is the latest
result of our ongoing programme of research into the information
needs of IT professionals.
We have created a format that delivers a weekly package of
intelligence on business technology matters as they impact on the
working lives of IT professionals.
Here you will find incisive analysis of the major business and
IT stories of the week, in-depth coverage of the most important
issues of IT strategy and management, and expert commentary that
helps you set the agenda in your own organisations.
We will keep you, as IT business leaders, informed, well in
advance, about the technology-based business issues that non-IT
senior management will be reading about in the mainstream business
and financial press.
Key elements of the new look are: a full picture front cover
that captures the major issue of the week clearer page design,
highlighting the information and issues that matter most and more
prominent treatment of the technology issues that are important to
you. One navigation device is a cursor-like arrow, showing the way
to more information on computerweekly.com.
We continue to add more and more technical depth to Computer
Weekly. In January we added the Business & Technology and Radar
sections - now joined by a refreshed Networks section. Business
& Technology, which concentrates on one topic each month,
focuses primarily on using IT to back up your business, and,
secondarily, offers market overviews. Radar looks at incoming
technologies, whether out of the labs or near market, and at
innovation in corporate IT more generally.
In giving the magazine a refresh, we have been guided by the
principle that not all news in the IT space is worth paying
attention to in a weekly print format: it needs to be filtered and
analysed. The News of the Week section and news analysis pages do
this. Computer Weekly's analyses answer the questions behind the
news.
We do not aim to be comprehensive, but to select and offer
informed point-of-view analysis. Our bedrock is, as ever, to be the
champion of the corporate user agenda and of IT professionalism. We
stand for clarity of communication in IT-enabled business
transformation and beat the drum of the business value of IT.
This new iteration of Computer Weekly has been designed to be an
even better companion to the week.
