Every year, Network World holds up a mirror – the You Issue, the magazine that’s all about your favorite person in the whole world. Actually, it’s also about all your peers, but “The Peer Issue” just doesn’t have the same ring to it. This year we take the heavy with the light – on the one hand examining ethical issues (like illegal software use) and on the other hand looking at online gamers. Plus, we profile some interesting places to work, give advice on managing your image within your organization, and offer the updated Salary Calculator, so you can see how your pay measures up.
