Remind me of Teletext https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teletext https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teletext

  Teletext it's an entire different thing. This was actual internet shown in TV. Teletext was almost like Gopher or some mini-newspaper showing up different subpages (100 the index, up to 999, but not all numbers were used, often >200 was for news, >300 for sports, and so on). Teletext had no interactivity beside of the 'reveal' button for some simple newspaper-like puzzles. EDIT:ok, it;s close, it used vblank interval times to send the signal, identical to the Teletext. In that case, yes, it's close, but with different technologies as the protocol, even if they shared the same medium.
