Reporting for an electronic news service, journalists would travel in news relay units equipped with a dish antenna for transmission to broadcast satellites. Videotex subscribers in the home now will have immediate coverage of newsworthy events. As it turned out, videotex failed miserably and all but died out by 1987. It wasn't until 1993, when Mosaic, the first graphical Web browser, was introduced that the online world really began to take off. Yogi Berra was right, I guess.
Predictions are difficult.
