In this Accountancy Age special we look at the virtual world already ensnaring accountants with our Second Life reporter avatar Belinda Blessed, how audit committees are becoming increasingly interested in IT risks, and how to dispose your used equipment in an ethical way. We also ask our experts what companies should do to have a green IT strategy.
