The magazine series that covers stories from the world of computers and digital communications.
This week, Benjamin Woolley looks at the options for shopping by computer. In the near future, customers will be able to log on to the Internet and send their designs for goods directly to manufacturers, which will respond to the specifications and return the finished articles. And on the World Wide Web, consumers will be able to access virtual shopping malls, where they can contact product developers directly and take part in auctions.
From the US, the programme reports on the bizarre experience of the associate editor of Time magazine, Joshua Quittner, and his wife and fellow journalist Michelle Slatalla, who wrote a book about hackers and then, within days of its publication, became the victims of hacking themselves.
Plus a look at how anonymous E-mail is helping desperate people to get in touch with the Samaritans; and in the regular Hotlist spot cyber celebrities visit their favourite places on the World Wide Web.

Sci-fi thriller series.

Father Anton Jonascu has dedicated his life to the homeless in Trashtown. One day, during a raid on the squatter town, he sees a policeman transform into a terrifying demon. When he experiences the same delusion during a service, he becomes convinced that the stress of his work is causing him to hallucinate and he goes to see a doctor. But the doctor, too, has the power to metamorphose, and makes what seems a very tempting offer to the exhausted minister - to give him the power to heal.
