If you’re a Yahoo email user, there’s a good chance your account may have been hacked – the internet giant has just announced more than 1 billion email accounts may have been compromised in attacks dating back to 2013.
So, if you’re worried you may be a victim of the Yahoo Mail hack, here’s what you need to do…
The jobs market isn’t as competitive as it once was – 2015 saw a noticeable rise in the number of graduates turning down or reneging on job offers that they had previously accepted.
Figures from HighFliers.co.uk, an independent market research company which specialises in student and graduate recruitment research, revealed that this meant over 1,000 graduate positions were left unfilled last year, reducing the graduate intake at almost a third of the UK’s leading employers.
And if prospective employees can pick and choose in this manner, it means employers have to up their game – so is it time your business offered work from home benefits to new recruits?
The Apple iPhone battery isn’t renowned for its long life or ability to hold a charge – after a couple of months your mobile spends that much time plugged into the wall, it may as well be a landline – but a batch of 6s models have a fault that makes them shut down, even if the battery has plenty of charge.
As far as faults go, it’s hardly up there with Samsung’s exploding Note 7 battery, but if you’re affected, it’s certainly going to cause a headache – if not a fire – and Apple is offering to replace any offending batteries.

Have you ever wondered why we’re generally expected to work from nine-to-five each day, or maybe some eight-to-four or ten-to-six derivative of this eight-hour shift? Then read on…
Flexible working is more common in the workplace than ever before – it’s even enshrined in legislation, following the introduction of new flexible working laws in 2014 – but reports that the traditional nine-to-five is dead appear to be well wide of the mark.
According to a survey from Britain’s Healthiest Workplace, almost three quarters (73%) of UK companies still don’t offer this option to all their staff – if your workplace is one of them, here’s why you need to get on board to avoid getting left behind.
Video conferencing has been thrust into the mainstream with apps like Skype and G+ Hangouts – no need for expensive VC equipment, just a smartphone and an internet connection does the trick these days.
The trouble is, it’s never quite that simple – internet connections vary, buffering or lagging can interrupt things, and video calling is a sure fire way to hammer your smartphone’s battery.
That’s why a simple, easy-to-use, and cost-effective conference call is the best bet.
But if all that can go wrong with a video conference, have you ever wondered what this would all look like during a face-to-face meeting?
The good news for Apple fans is the tech giant is releasing three new MacBook Pros – though the fact that the biggest news surrounding the new laptops is that they’re losing the start-up chime and gaining an emoji button bar could suggest that there’s no big overhaul in the hardware at all.
The bad news is that the price of all it computers is going to rise by hundreds of pounds, even for existing models.
And it appears Brexit is a big reason behind the price hikes.
