- ideogram 2.3 – Maybe ‘arobase’?
- television 2.9 – [Slow-scan](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slow-scan_television) although Nipkow Disk is also a great choice, and Slow-scan can go to videotelephony as well (I have fond memories of poetry readings in the mid-90s with the [Electronic Café](http://journalpanorama.org/interrogating-invention-electronic-cafe-and-the-politics-of-technology/) in Santa Monica from the basement of a cybercafe in Paris using a PicturePhone mod I and flashing puppets that were stored in the basement…)
- videotelephony 3.0 – [PicturePhone](http://ethw.org/Picturephone). While I’m at it, I also remember a really funny 1996 experience with a 5 ISDN lines PictureTel (3 were used for video, and 2 for audio): we were waiting for a call and the lines started blinking. It took about a minute for all five to light up and show the picture of a corporate guy who looks at us, a bit puzzled, and goes: “Sorry, wrong number.” before he hanged up.
