Bye Bye Ceefax

Today is the last ever day for Ceefax after 38 years, as it is the final digital switch over. BBC Ceefax here in the UK was the world's first teletext service. It specialised in delivering news and features in 24 rows of text per page and 8 basic colours. Information brevity before the days of Twitter.

We thought we should celebrate this, so here is its logo: in a simple style evocative of Ceefax (an evening of paper-pricking with a pin).
