The lingering death of TV review
It's debatable if TV review is really exticent on teletext or wither it's just hiding under a different guise making occasional appearences. On Ceefax ,however, we have been left in no doubt. Near the beginning of the week a message in TV reviews regular place (p526,BBC1+2 if memory serves me correctly) saying thay the entertainment section was under going a revamp and that there was no plans for a daily TV review in the futre. The entertainment section looks far from vamped. Indeed Ceefax has barly changed it's appearance this century. I do have a picture of this on my phone but it refuses to hop onto my computer. I also have a picture of the ceefax placeholder page which is simply lots of little "A" like-but-not-quite-A's figures. A more costly email option is also aviable but that doesn't seem to be working great etheir.
I know this is a very UK centred blog on teletext but I'm afraid I simply don't know enough about other countries teletext to update. Also the guest nation slot is very time comusing and I do have something of a life to shamble through. So just an apology to anyone reading thinking "what an arrogent,xyenaphobic pig." Anyway I hope to post a little more regulary as I have some decent ideas for blogs. Remember keep reading that text! I'm sure I'll think of a motto soon. Suggestions welcome though as it has been sevral months.
TELEtext thing of the day!-Backchat-p577 BBC1+2
Short 2-3 line chats like this often work best when their about nothing in particular and backchat proves this. It's for children but it's cetainly streched and their are often people in their early twenties texting in. Has the ability to talk aout ice cream and manic depression only sentences away from each other. Would that work on the internet? No.
