1. Innovation: Big (And Not So Big) Ideas for 2003
This special issue was devoted to highlighting new
technologies, new tools and new approaches, as well as
some trends that we predicted would show up on your radar
screen in 2003. How'd we do?

The winners of the 2003 Enterprise Value Awards demonstrated
the need for solid business cases when investing in IT. Who
were they? Con-Way Transportation Services, Health Decisions,
the Securities and Exchange Commission, the University of

4. Outsourcing: India and Beyond
Consistently, the leading "hot-button" topic this past year
has been outsourcing. The features we ran on offshore
outsourcing elicited the greatest volume of letters and
passion from readers.

* In "Inside Outsourcing to India," we described how
outsourcing to India can provide a huge payback--if you're
willing to work at it. Two offshore veterans shared the
lessons they'd learned to help you determine whether Indian
outsourcing is right for your company.
http://www.cio.com/archive/060103/outsourcing.html

* In a special report called "The Ultimate Cost of Offshore
Outsourcing," we looked at the politics (see the story
"Backlash"), the people (see "The Radicalization of Mike
Emmons") and the money (see "The Hidden Costs of Offshore
Outsourcing")

5. Resourcefulness: The CIO 100
Resourcefulness is not just about cutting costs. As 100
companies showed us, true resourcefulness lies in
extracting value from all aspects of IT. This issue contains
topic coverage, company profiles and a complete list of the
100 honorees.
http://www.cio.com/archive/081503/index.html

** The 2004 CIO 100 will honor companies for agility. Watch
for an application online in early January.

6. Technology: Its Impact on Everything
We invited leading thinkers from many walks of life to
share their thoughts about how technology is affecting
health care, financial markets, war, exploration, kids,
education, employment trends, civil liberties, religion,
sports and more. To find out what Ray Kurzweil, Queen Noor,
Newt Gingrich and many others had to say, go to:
