I recorded one of my Prestel sessions to disc. This was the first day of the new off-peak time charges, and many people were upset and leaving. This session included my checking of emails, replying to a couple, and then browsing the chatlines. Through the magic of emulation, and a bit of BBC BASIC, you now have the opportunity to watch me doing this all over again. This is how we really used to use Prestel! See the page to view it! And PS: yes, I know more updates are long overdue! ]]> http://www.viewdata.org.uk/ Sat, 17 Jan 2015 00:00:00 -0500 17th January 2015 rob A long log time ago, in a world far far away, a young rodent by the name of Micromouse kept the nascent generation of online addicts informed and entertained by his news and opinion column. A "blogger" before such terms were invented.. We won't mention the Prince Philip Prestel Hack.. As time marched on, so did Sqweeeks, becoming a well known, indeed world renowned, and highly respected IT Journalist and commentator. On 12th January, Steve Gold died from complications arising from a heart operation, just days before his 59th Birthday. He was a friend, and a great chap. He will be sorely missed. A memorial site is here. ]]> http://www.viewdata.org.uk/ Sun, 21 Oct 2012 00:00:00 -0400 http://www.viewdata.org.uk/ Mon, 09 Jul 2012 00:00:00 -0400 9th July 2012 rob A little bit of from 1990 (Thanks Ant) ]]> http://www.viewdata.org.uk/ Sat, 07 Jul 2012 00:00:00 -0400 7th July 2012 rob We have moved site to a new host; if you see this, it's working!
