Get Myself Connected

Image a world in which you could get “all your music and videos online without ever leaving your home”. I know. It’ll never happen!!

This vast explosion of change in cyberspace and interactivity was on the horizon when BBC Radio 1 presented their Interactive Radio Night in March 1995.  Twenty years ago cutting edge was a CD-ROM and the concept on sending an email was still a novelty.
Guiding listeners through the technology are Evening Session presenters Jo Whiley and Steve Lamacq, with help from “space cadet” William Franklyn.

The three-hour show, that went out on Sunday 26 March 1995, is here condensed into a 45-minute slice.
Incidentally the web address of “http://www.bbcnc.org.uk/online/radiointeract/” no longer works.
