5-10K investment in Funds

Hi Guys & Gals,

I have between 5-10K which I would like to invest eithe in Technology & Telecom sector or somewhere else ethically.

I have other savings so I am prepared to take risks.

How do I go about doing my research on which funds to pick?

Thanks

    This might help on the ethical investment side of things: http://www.eiris.org/

    No promises though, I just googled for it, so have no idea what quality it is likely to be!
