  1. In reply to Robin above:

    I don’t think Click has an RSS feed but you might want to check out http://page2rss.com/ which will allow you to monitor pages that don’t have RSS feeds. It’s free and will create an RSS feed for the site which you can then subscribe to. I use it to subscribe to a few sites myself.

  2. Congratulations on the link from the Beeb. QOT is an essential read and it’s good to see it getting mentioned in the mainstream media. Good on ya!

  3. Hi, congrats.

    Anyhow, i’ve been thinking about this for a while, do you know any ways to subscribe only to BBC Click feeds? Can’t find it in their feed subscribe options.

    Any help is very much appreciated.

  4. I’ve watched the program a few years back and I know how awesome it is!

    Congratulations. I’m just curious to know how much traffic this mention on the BBC site brought. Why not write a post on it?
