I love The Apprentice. It's an endlessly entertaining show. Last year I wrote a post looking at the websites of the different candidates, the point being that under the new rules Lord Sugar is looking for a business to invest in, rather than an employee, so it's interesting to look at their current businesses. Last year I spotted Tom's potential as a winner, because his site listed some interesting businesses and ideas.
So here we go for 2012. As before, candidates are forbidden from tweeting while the show is in progress, because it was all filmed months ago, and clearly they are likely to give things away (Update - 23rd April - lots of them are tweeting, so I've added their Twitter accounts). However they are allowed to have websites, and many do, from their current businesses. It's surprising that more don't have sites; the people are appearing on a TV show that will be seen by about 8m people a week, so it's best to control your own image, rather than letting the newspapers and other sites do it.
