The following is via Joe Smith and GloboList:

A useful
video if you're looking for ways to illustrate the rapid rate
of
technological change to students. This is a report from KRON in San
Francisco about The San Francisco Examiner and Chronicle's forays into

online news in 1981. The computers are linked by telephone and it

takes 2 hours to send the text (minus ads and photos) of the daily

paper.
