We’ve just made it easier for you to keep up with your favourite things in the world of pop culture.

Today we've added the ability for you to follow topics on our sites. Use it to follow movies, comic books, your favourite characters (Spider-Man, amirite?), up-and-coming artists, or your favourite people in media. Whatever you’re into.

Like the look of a new movie? Follow it. Want to know when your favourite event is back? Follow that too!

Here’s the good bit: we’ll email you the next time we publish an article about any topics you follow.

That means you can spend less time searching for the things you love, and more time reading about them.

With 70,000 topics in our database, there’s something for everyone.

You can also choose whether you want to get updates from other great sites in the ReedPop network like Dicebreaker, Eurogamer, Rock Paper Shotgun, and VG247, making it easier than ever to know everything about your favourite things.

This is just the start: we’re also working on a new area of the site that shows a feed of all of the stories about topics you follow, making it eeeeven easier to track the things you love. It'll be ready soon.

We'd love you to give our new following system a try -- let us know what you think in the comments.
