The German TV-channel ARD’s teletext advent calendar is going strong. Here’s Dan Farrimond’s truth about daddy Christmas.
Keyfax was the US version of the British Ceefax teletext. It was launched in 1982 but was shut down already by 1984, partly due to problems with getting the British teletext decoders approved in USA. Instead, Keyfax became a videotex service in Chicago and changed from the British standard to the American NAPLPS. But that failed too and Keyfax went bust in 1986. More info.

Teletext graphics by Richard Gingras, 1980. This service was called Now and ran on KCET-TV. It was part of a collaboration between CBS, NBC and PBS to test the French Antiope standard for teletext. The project was supported by Télédiffusion de France.
Images from Gingras’ website, which is only partly archived on archive.org. There’s an interview with Gingras about his teletext work here.

Prince, Channel Four Oracle teletext, 26th February 1986. Before he was known as the Artist Formely Known As… presumably. This could all be another teletext abbreviation policy, I dunno.
