What would a phone look like if it were built by parents? British parenting website Mumsnet decided to find out and teamed up with the makers of a child safety app to create Other Phone, a locked-down version of Android.

Five months on from its launch, the phone has never been more timely. The conversation about letting children use social media and smartphones hasn’t just continued unabated; it’s exploded.

Many IT environments have grown organically over time: new servers added whenever workloads increased. The result? Sprawling infrastructure, rising energy costs, and complex storage management.

But what if several of those servers could be replaced with just one modern system?

In this article, we explore how modern infrastructure platforms can run multiple workloads on fewer machines, reduce operational overhead, and help IT teams rethink how storage and compute resources are deployed.

Server consolidation claims can sound like little more than slideshow promises, but advances in processor design and energy efficiency mean shrinking server estates is becoming a realistic option

A partnership between Lenovo and The Big Issue is showing the power of refurbished tech, as together they tackle “digital poverty” by donating high-quality refurbished Lenovo ThinkPad laptops.

There’s a wider point here, too. That buying refurbished tech isn’t simply an ethical decision or one that will help drive down e-waste. It’s also a smart business move.

Lenovo is working with Big Issue to give social enterprises refurbished laptops, and there are wider lessons about the value of refurbished IT

Thinking about buying notebooks for your small team? It’s tempting to focus on price, but that’s often a costly mistake. The wrong choice can end up underpowered, outdated, or incompatible with future tools like local AI.

For a small business on a tight budget, investing in the right notebook now can pay off with better performance, fewer support tickets, and longer useful life.

Many companies tell themselves: “Our servers are still working. We’re fine.” But if parts of your estate are more than five years old, you could be running on borrowed time. The truth is, legacy hardware doesn’t just age; it silently drains your budget and slows performance.

Read this article to discover the four key red flags you should watch out for. Here’s a sneak peek:

❗ Not AI-ready
🔐 Mounting security alerts
🛠️ Fragmented, manual management
💡 Sky-high energy and licensing costs

If your infrastructure shows any of these signs, you may be throwing money at inefficiency and risk without even realising it. For mid-size businesses aiming to stay competitive, now is the time to evolve.

We reveal danger signs that reveal when your servers or data center are using too much energy, are insecure or simply aren't fit for purpose

Evidence shows that LinkedIn may show more content from men than from women, with significant effects. Experiments by women such as Jane Evans, Cindy Gallop, R Fairley, and Simon E Bonnett reveal that identical posts from men and women can get dramatically different engagement, and many saw their reach soar only after switching their profile gender to “male.”

LinkedIn may disagree, but if our interviewees experience is correct then it seems that the LinkedIn gender gap is very much alive

Should AI Be Allowed to Learn from Copyrighted Work?

A UK court just sided with Stability AI in its fight with Getty Images, saying the company didn’t break copyright laws when training its image generator Stable Diffusion.

The catch? It won on a technicality – because the AI didn’t actually store or copy Getty’s photos. Lawyers say the ruling leaves huge questions unanswered about how AI can use creative work.

Mind the gap: why indirect procurement could be your biggest financial blind spot

It’s not the big, strategic purchases that usually break budgets: it’s the small, scattered ones.

While direct procurement is carefully tracked and controlled, indirect spend (travel, software subscriptions, marketing services, equipment) often slips through unnoticed. Over time, this creates a financial control gap that quietly erodes profitability.

This article explores how modern organisations are re-examining indirect procurement, and why visibility, consistency, and collaboration across teams are critical to closing that gap.

Decentralised purchasing blurs the line between corporate control and employee autonomy, so how do you close the financial control gap?
