Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I remember these days. Now of course we developed this technology to a point where we all have terabytes of filth.
Even in 1984 the go-to password is 1234....
I loved the end credits song, catchy lil tune.
I think it's really fucking cool that in 1984 there was a TV show trying to send data and programs via the audio.

Looking at how they looked up the pages with numbers it reminds me of the British Teletext system that was in most TVs by the mid to late 80s, each channel would have it's own teletext with up to 999 pages, everything from news and weather to TV guide, stocks/shares, classifieds and lonely hearts etc. It was really quite amazing for the time.

I loved how wholesome and optimistic the lady was about keeping up with the new technology. Very smart indeed.
