On Saturday the government will start re-running last year's "Catch it, Kill it, Bin it" advertising campaign to raise awareness of how to guard against flu. It reverses a previous decision to scrap it. But with the number of deaths from flu continuing to rise, will better awareness counter the problem? Chris Huhne, the Energy Secretary has announced he's looking at a major reform of the electricity market and wants extra investment in the country's energy infrastructure. So what change, if any, can consumers expect to see in their bills in 2011? And what is crowd-sourcing? We'll look at how companies and government organisations are tapping into the wisdom of crowds to develop products and policies.
