Ceefax Page 302 For The Football Scores
Refreshing a page that refreshed itself every ninety seconds.
Saturday afternoon spent hitting the reveal button and waiting for a score to change.
There was no other way to follow a match you were not at and was not on television. The page updated slowly and people stared at it for two hours.
The whole experience was the opposite of a live app and somehow more tense for it.
Cost back then
Free
Goes for now
The nearest thing is a score app you refresh anyway
