	CEEFAX (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The foundation was laid at the British Broadcasting Corp., and it may have been invented by anonymous technicians at the BBC who used it to communicate among themselves at the various transmitter sites around Great Britain, according to anecdotal data collected by the author in Britain.
		Teledata was later renamed CEEFAX, which was announced to the public on Oct. 23, 1972 and first demonstrated on Jan. 4, 1973.
		The Ceefax system was well received throughout the world and more than a dozen countries began testing, then operating, teletext systems based on the model.

	Ceefax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1983, Ceefax started to broadcast programs (known as telesoftware) for the BBC Micro, a home computer from the BBC.
		The BBC is promoting the reuse of the Ceefax page numbers on the Freeview and digital satellite BBCi Ceefax-replacement services.
		Once a common filler during daytime (where it was very occasionally billed as Ceefax in Vision or Ceefax AM), it has been marginalised by the move towards a near-continuous service, where in recent years BBC News 24 would be placed in late night/early morning gaps in schedules.

	Teletext - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Unlike Ceefax which was a one-way service carried in the existing TV signal, Viewdata was a two-way system using telephones.
		In the case of the Ceefax and Oracle systems and their successors in the UK, the teletext signal is transmitted as part of the ordinary analogue TV signal but concealed from view at the end of lines that are not visible on the screen.
		The proposed higher resolution Level 2 (1981) was not adopted in Britain (in-vision services from Ceefax and ORACLE did use it at various times however, though even this was ceased by the BBC in 1996), although transmission rates were doubled from two to four lines a frame in 1981.

		This exclusive was achieved when a Ceefax reporter found himself sitting next to singer Fran Healey at a football match, and they got chatting.
		Mention Ceefax to anyone and, chances are, they'll have a guilty secret - it could be that they read the record reviews, that they have a favourite page they know the number of (606 I bet, 555 or 302).
		I was expecting to find Ceefax housed in a forgotten office at the end of a distant corridor at Broadcasting House, staffed by old men with cobwebs in their hair.

	TELETEXT - The Early Years
		Ceefax had a maximum of four sub-pages, but Oracle sometimes had most of the alphabet strung across a page.
		CEEFAX managed to put a slightly different spin on events as was their wont on festive occasions, and these two versions of their rotating news page demonstrate the unique ability of teletext to keep up-to-date as stories develop.
		Nowadays CEEFAX is served from the same faceless machine that generates the schedules, programme ideas and the virtual-reality reality show presenters.

		Before the advent of the internet and 24-hour news channels, Ceefax was at "the forefront of journalism", according to BBC chairman Michael Grade.
		Ceefax was developed by BBC broadcast engineers who were working on ways of providing subtitles for the deaf.
		The first time the public heard the name Ceefax - a play on "see facts" - was late in 1972, in advance of the first experimental transmissions.

	Digital Spy Forums - What`s Going to happen to ceefax?
		Are we going to lose ceefax completely and have the testcard on instead, or is the BBC going to create a digital text service like the one we watch now on our boxes.
		The trouble with Ceefax these days, most of us have access to the internet and so therefore Ceefax isn't used as often as it used too, although admittidly it is convenient to use especially for subtitles to programmes for the hard of hearing.
		And there's another implication to the analogue shutdown and thus the loss of CEEFAX - there are still many video recorders arond that set their clock from teletext: with the shutdown this will have to be done manually every week or so as they drift.

		Thus, a search for "ceefax teletext oracle" would return pages with at least one of the three terms.
		A search on "ceefax -oracle" is equivalent to the first example, and "+ceefax +oracle +teletext" will return the same documents as the second.

	Fridge : Ceefax - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Ceefax sounds like what one imagines Tortoise would sound like, if the critical acclaim of the overly hyped band truly held water.
		This early platter from Fridge, more a collection of demos than a cohesive album, sees the band operating in the jazzy post-rock style of Tortoise, but hitting far more right notes than they usually hit.
		Ceefax displays only the embryonic state of Fridge, as the band would go on to more complicated arrangements and traditional, albeit beautiful, compositions on later albums.
