The information superhighway
Article Abstract:
The information superhighway has not yet become reality in the UK, but businesses must be aware that it is only a matter of time before it does so. They should be particularly concerned about the possible impact of the information which will be transmitted over the information superhighway. Providers of information will be directly connected with consumers worldwide, although it will be some time before the necessary equipment becomes generally available.

Bluff your way to greatness
Article Abstract:
Small companies can appear more efficient and dynamic if they invest in new technology, such as desktop computers which can send faxes, computer network and telephony integration and a structured cabling system which enables staff to participate in videoconferencing, or make use of ISDN telephone links. Being on the Internet allows customers to contact the company directly and this can be used by all the company employees on the network.
