Abstract
Selected recent data from collider experiments pertaining to the understand ing of QCD at low Bjorken-x are reviewed. The status of QCD and Regge facto rization in hard diffractive interactions is discussed in terms of data fro m HERA and the Tevatron. The possibility of anomalous behaviour in the yy t otal cross section is confronted with the most recent measurements from LEP . Data from all three colliders that are sensitive to possible BFKL effects are presented and different interpretations are discussed.
