Beeb.com, the BBC’s commercial Web arm, reports today that Comic Relief this year
was “the most successful online charity donation event in history – having raised
over £370,000 in online donations.” They say that this broke “the previous record
by 300 percent and the previous Red Nose Day by over 1000 percent!”

The announcement came in Beeb.com’s weekly e-mail newsletter. Sensibly they included
yet another request to donate: “ut it’s not over yet! You can still donate online
if you’ve not done so at http://www.rednoseday.beeb.com.”
