Ceefax — a fifty year old vision of the future
Ceefax — a fifty year old vision of the future
In 1974, the BBC launched its teletext service Ceefax. If you remember painstakingly pressing buttons to see holiday bargains, news, weather, sport and much else, you’re at least as old as I am! Ofcom has produced a potted guide to the service, predating the web by decades, and evoking many memories. French readers can feel to point out Minitel was superior in many ways.

6 Common Mistakes Made When Marketing Events & Workshops
Including workshops and training occasions to your organization mix can be an excellent means of raising your income in addition to raising your profile in your local market location.
Workshops can be gone for luxurious resorts, coffee shop, online, with conference calls when you let your imagination run wild, events can be as huge or little as you desire them to be.
Yet there is absolutely nothing even worse than spending your priceless time creating an occasion, reserving a place and also marketing it just to have more trainers than delegates! And also I am sure this is why numerous people are put off by running occasions.
It's the thought "however, what happens if no one comes?"
There are several usual Mistakes that many people make running real-time events.
Mistake No 1: Offer occasions that people require - not what they desire. It is also effortless to find a void out there and choose to share your expertise on a topic that you feel in one's bones is required. However, if there is no wish wherefore you are using, it makes marketing your event incredibly effort. Nevertheless, it is not just money; someone is buying a real-time event - it is their time as well.
Find out what your market place wants before picking your schedule. If you don't think me, attempt providing a time management workshop and simply see the number of individuals pay you money to attend:-RRB-.
Mistake No 2: Think about advertising and marketing, not advertising. "Exactly how do I advertise my occasions?" is typically among the first inquiries individuals ask. Marketing expenses can consume into your profit unbelievably rapidly and also, to be honest, will not work if you are providing an event "cold". Unless you have a solid brand name visibility in your market, you need to develop people's count on you. You require to create an advertising and marketing plan that constructs a discussion with potential delegates.
Mistake No 3: Begin advertising with no data source. The more extensive the database of interested clients you have, the more probable you are to fill your event. If you have a data source of 100 people and also you are trying to market an event that you need 7 to break even as well as 20 to make your target profit, the mathematics simply don't build up. Your conversion price requires to be 20% which will only work if you have a very desirable subject, as well as those individuals all, happen to be cost-free on the same day.
Mistake No 4: Offer the entire cake rather than a taster. The factor that delays holders at Farmers' Markets provide a tidbit to taste is that they intend to attract you to buy the whole cake. If you want to supply taster sessions to examine the marketplace location, consider breaking down your offerings to nibbles. It makes it a lot easier to bill the true worth of the event when you begin marketing it commercially.
Mistake No 5: Price cut greatly as despair sets in. Your workshop is in 5 days, and you require another 4 or 5 people actually to make it work. You start marking down and offering BOGOFFs (purchase one, get one free!).
But just how do you think this makes the people that have currently committed to you feel? It's like taking place vacation, only to find that the individual in the space following door obtained the precise very same holiday for half the cost because they reserved on Teletext the week previously.
Offer early riser discounts as well as reward individuals who book ahead of time. If you require to raise the numbers at short notice, it is much better PR by providing a couple of complimentary places to your Favorited customers as thanks for their commitment to you.
Mistake No 6: Have no followed on events. One occasion does not do a service. Always have something else to provide to people that really can not attend the day of the workshop; however, want what you are offering. (at the minimum supply an e-mail e-newsletter to talk with them!).
You may locate that it takes 4 or 5 months to develop recognition for your events. It seems an extended period, yet think me it will certainly then make filling workshop three as well as four much easier (and also a great deal even more fun for you!).

FA Cup Football (Virgin, Spectrum, 1986)
Gallup Spectrum charts, Your Sinclair Issue 6, June 1986
In the prelude to the current ultimate form of this blog, I wrote about 16 games based on taking liberties with what might have been the most popular games for each month, maybe. If I fancied writing about them. One of those games was Alter Ego, a remarkable text-based life simulation which told the story of a person through giving the player a set of scenarios and responding to their choice of a mood and action to take in each. Once I managed to find magazines with historic charts in, pivoted to confirmed #1 games, and saw that Alter Ego didn’t meet my criteria, I didn’t expect to be covering anything much like it. I had reckoned without the power of football over the British public.
It’s a little surprising to me that we haven’t encountered any football computer games before now, given their hold in the UK, but this one has an extra advantage of being backed with an official licence. FA Cup Football is so called as the first game based on the Football Association Cup knockout tournament, which is the oldest national football competition in the world. Teams play an opponent and the winner goes through to the next round in a process of winnowing from hundreds of teams to a lone winner. The first FA Cup matches took place in 1871, with the first final, won 1-0 by Wanderers over Royal Engineers, in 1872. To put things in perspective, that means that the FA Cup has been in existence for 18 years longer than Nintendo. The tournament is the star here. Most football games to this point involved taking control of all of the players on one side to play out a match, or managing a side through picking their players and dealing with transfers. FA Cup Football takes a more idiosyncratic approach.
You choose the team(s) that you want to take charge of through the tournament from a numbered list, you watch the draw for who plays against who being made, and then you take part in the matches. And that works to essentially the same model as Alter Ego. For each match you pick a mood (“tactics”) for your team -- attacking, balanced or defensive -- and sometimes choose an action in response to a scenario. The pitch is slippery -- what kind of boots do you send the team out in? You get relegated -- do you slash everyone’s pay or keep it the same? You have a fixture cancelled -- go on holiday? Then you watch the scores for all the round’s matches updated as they play out.
What effect your choices have is not often very apparent. It seems like choosing to be attacking means more goals for both sides, but that may be me rationalising randomness along narrative lines that make sense to me. With the scenarios, there is no indication whether you picked the right answer or even whether there is a right answer. The whole thing becomes a study in powerlessness more brutal than Alter Ego’s harshest moments. At least that told you where you went wrong.
The powerlessness extends structurally through the game beyond the matches you theoretically have some influence over. At the start of each round of matches you have to watch the game beep through each computer team’s selection of tactics. Sometimes that means sitting through rounds in which you play no part at all. Any matches that end in draws go to a replay, and since penalty shoot-outs hadn’t come in yet, any replays that end in draws go to another reply. Should Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion, or two other teams you have no interest in, take four attempts to decide a winner, you will have to sit through each and every one of them.
It’s this that makes sense of the fact that the game lets you chose eight teams to oversee, and lets you have eight players doing so. You can opt to start from the FA Cup third round and collectively take charge of all 64 teams in it. Eight of you can gather round the screen can watch the draw take shape and take your stake in the cup playing out, surprises and inevitabilities and all. I don’t know if anyone actually did that. I didn’t, but I do remember playing the Commodore 64 version with my brother a couple of times and getting something out of it.
Particularly without that crowd of players, FA Cup Football makes little sense as a game in its own right. Watching a lot of numbers and team names slowly being drawn is not an exciting process. But you could say the same thing about the real thing, and for some people at least it would be very wrong. Seeing Arsenal drawn to play Manchester United, big names coming together in an early round, can be a moment of buzz even if you don’t support either team. Turning on teletext and watching the current football scores update, complex matches reduced to a single line of text, could be hugely tense, even more so than the more informative live text the internet tends to provide today. That’s the kind of ritual that the game positions itself as a simulation of.
If anything, it could do with being even less interactive. It doesn’t work as a game. But in boiling down something complicated and familiar to its bare bones, it does hit on something if the FA Cup means something to you. As a certain type of football fan, it feels like an electronic performance of storied ancient rites.

Mistigram: it may be September but there's still a bit more summer up in this mother, and what better subject for #teletext than the celebrated palm trees of Teletext Holidays renown? This tropical hammock scene was illustrated by @AtonalOsprey and included in the recent MIST0823 artpack collection.

I'm somewhat a badass adult if I allow myself to believe it
Well guess what. I finally have a first author paper. It is joint first author with AS and JD, but I am still first author.
Not only that, but it was talked about on the news all over the world. Dad even saw saw it on the "teletext". My research has finally amounted to something.
But getting that Delta paper out took so much from me. I still feel sick when I think about it and it's still causing me issues.
So I had a break. A mini holiday.
The paper came out on Thursday and I was off work from Friday to Tuesday.
FSP came by from Saturday to Sunday. I made a real effort this time. Last time he came, let's face it, it wasn't a good time. We were in a really crappy small room and I was crying about how things would work and we had a mini argument and arg. Just not good.
This time was good. This time we didn't talk about stupid visa stuff. We just enjoyed each others company.
I went to my first ever Halloween party (though it was a bit disappointing because I forgot costume stuff and also we didn't really know what to do). We went to the Tate Modern and saw weird floating giant jelly fish above us.
Now I just have to face going back to work tomorrow. >_<
