21st century shopping
Simon visits one of the UK's most hi-tech shopping centres to discover how technology could transform the shopping experience - from making it simpler to find a parking space听at the start听of your trip, to delivering all your purchases to you at the end.听 He's then听joined in studio by Martin Raymond to talk about how to ensure technology enhances the way we shop - and whether that might mean spending less, rather than more, time on the shop floor.

Paid Blogging
Simon explores "sponsored conversation" - a marketing trend which sees companies paying bloggers to write about their products and services.听Rupert Goodwins, Click On's resident technology expert, and Phil Adams who works in digital marketing, discuss the its use as a marketing tool, the importance of transparency, reach and influence, and whether it's a trend we're likely to see more of.

Pixelh8 at Bletchley听Park听- making music from old computers
Musician Matthew Applegate, also known as Pixelh8, makes his living reprogramming vintage computer systems and writing software to produce interesting sounds for the likes of Damon Albarn and Imogen Heap. For the past few months he's been working at the National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park - home of WW2 codebreaking activities and birthplace of the modern computer - to create a new musical composition called "Obsolete?", which will be performed this weekend using the machines housed in the museum.听 Rupert Goodwins joins him to explore the history of computers through the noises they make.

Digital Inclusion for the Elderly
Recent research from OFCOM suggests that the elderly are the听fastest听growing group of technology users.听 But an estimated 9 million people over the age of 55 听don't use computers or听the internet.听 With an increasing number of services only available or much cheaper online, and far more of our communication taking place using computers, there are concerns that the听elderly are听becoming increasingly excluded by technology. 听 A trip to a听mobile bus offering computer training听to pensioners shows just how much enthusiasm for technology exists among older people, and as Age Concern launch a campaign to encourage older people to embrace online communication, the charity's Leonie听Vlatchas talks to听Simon about the importance of digital inclusion.
