That was fancy for 1984. In about ‘82 we were members of a message board in New Orleans called The Dungeon. You could communicate with other members easily, and could send a message across the country, bouncing through the network of similar bulletin boards. The World Wide Web didn’t yet exist.

Highly enjoyable video. Weird, nostalgic, unintentionally funny, historically interesting, hittable 80s british TV host.

Featuring androgynous Pat Green.

Not sure if you're serious, but I thought it was pretty fricking cool that they were broadcasting software like that.

Damn, for 1984, that British telephone looked like it was from the 50’s.
