Last night Martin was joined by Ashley Norris to discuss the big stories moving across the web. One story causing a stir in Canada was that of a woman being sacked from a doughnut store for giving away a 16-cent doughnut to a child. There seemed to be a fight back, with a lot of bloggers writing about it. All that over a doughnut!
Check out the movers segment from last night below, where you can see what happened next in the doughnut saga and more.
We'll be bringing you more interesting and kooky web based stories in tonight's programme from 7.30pm.
And don't forget to watch last night top web videos. It's worth a laugh!
Did news of the massive earthquake in China break first online? A well-known US blogger Robert Scoble says he reported the tremors as they happened (and before they were officially conformed) thanks to updates on the social media site Twitter.

We will be talking to a new media blogger Paul Bradshaw at 7:30pm
