Once an organisation has grasped the importance of understanding and identifying their corporate data they must then ensure that they have a process in place to track its journey through the enterprise (its lifecycle flow). After all, the flow of data enables those critical business interactions, making sure that the right information gets to the right people or places, when it is needed, in the best format possible.

The latest wearable technologies and internet access being delivered on everyday products are for the most part revolutionary. While I anticipate a slow uptake in purchase of this new technology for now, most everyday items will offer us connectivity to the web in the near future and subsequently fit into the environment we live in. Life automation is truly alive and kicking.

I enjoyed playing both the single and multiplayer modes. For single player, it look a little while to get into, but once the action kicked off there was no stopping it. The facial expressions on the various characters are done really well, as are the graphics in the game.

Google may not be ethically unblemished, but to condemn the search giant, one must also condemn 90% of big business. Which is fine. Feel free to do that. I myself am not so keen on corporate hegemony, but why single out Google, when it's one of very few companies committed to more than just maximising profit.

Never ones to shy away from a challenge, scientists at CERN are to examine one of physics' most confounding principles - anti-gravity. Until recent...

It may lack the visual sophistication of a Pixar classic but this deceptively simple movie is mind-blowing in its own right. Each of the dots is an...

It was a valiant attempt but this huge solar flare didn't quite have enough velocity to escape the clutches of the Sun's gravitational field. Obser...

Taking the bins out or feeding the cats is just a mundane duty to most of us, but we all know some people who do these everyday chores and receive wide recognition and rapturous applause. These people are Facebook Famous. They're the winners of the most competitive popularity contest on earth and every aspect of their life is so damn fantastic that it needs to be shared with their legions of adoring friends. But how the hell do these cocky little upstarts do it and how can you achieve similar glorification from your online acquaintances?

Whilst an increase in sales of some 2.4 million on last year's total of 35 million for its iPhone is hardly 'small beer', there is a sense of disappointment and some suggest that Apple's phone is no longer the 'must have' product it was once seen to be.

As graphic tablets are shrinking down to a handy-sized 7" (iPad Mini, Nexus), so too are the prices of some 'grown-up' full-sized 10" tablets. At £24...

Recently the town I went to school in as a child has seen a Spotted page arise and within a few days the page itself has thousands of likes and is updated regularly. Like Foucault's metaphor of the Panopticon, the page acts as a high place looking down upon the people casting judgement hither and thither from the position of power that anonymity brings.

The build of the game I got to play was alpha, although it was pretty slick and I didn't experience any issues. Ubisoft tell me that there will be a closed beta coming up later in the year before the game gets a final release. Personally I can't wait as it was a lot of fun.
