What a strange and specific blast from the past. I think one of my friends had this? I remember her dad surfing the internet using the TV and that I thought it was so cutting edge, especially since we didn't have the internet yet.
Sky in the UK had a fancy version of teletext around that era and if you had a phone line plugged into the Sky box, you could play games and order things from shops which were on it. (The shops didn't have a whole lot of things in them, and you could only order bestsellers.) But I'd never heard of this, though.
My 'site ideas generator' page is back by popular demand! I removed it in the redesign but several ppl have asked about it ^^; I'm going to hopefully beef this up a little, soon. <3
