Computer Weekly is a digital magazine for IT professionals. It was formerly published as a weekly print magazine by Reed Business Information for over 40 years. The magazine was available free to IT professionals who met the circulation requirements. A small minority of issues were sold in retail outlets, with the bulk of revenue received from display and recruitment advertising. The magazine is still available for free as a PDF digital edition.
Computer Weekly was available in print and digital format and the readership was audited by BPA Worldwide, which verified its circulation twice yearly. The circulation figure was 135,035 according to the publisher’s statement in August 2007.
Bryan Glick is the Editor-in-chief of Computer Weekly, having joined in 2009.
Topics covered within the magazine include outsourcing, security and mobile computing to computer hacking and strategy for IT management. A recruitment section provides listings of IT jobs.
Computer Weekly won the UK Periodical Publishers Association (PPA) "Campaign of the Year" Award five times in seven years as it was involved in IT-related campaigns such as the costs of the NHS computer system, websites for disabled people and the Chinook crash on Mull of Kintyre.
'Downtime' is a section of the magazine which included a 2 column Dilbert.
The magazine was transferred to a digital edition in May after 2011; TechTarget bought the Computer Weekly website and events.

Famous quotes containing the words computer and/or weekly:
“The analogy between the mind and a computer fails for many reasons. The brain is constructed by principles that assure diversity and degeneracy. Unlike a computer, it has no replicative memory. It is historical and value driven. It forms categories by internal criteria and by constraints acting at many scales, not by means of a syntactically constructed program. The world with which the brain interacts is not unequivocally made up of classical categories.”
—Gerald M. Edelman (b. 1928)
“True love never goes without respect; and its counterfeit is often obliged to feign it, till an occasion serves to throw it out of the windows.”
—Anonymous, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. Weekly Visitor or Ladies Miscellany, p. 211 (April 1803)
