Industrial Revolution: London Times

The Second Industrial Revolution was an outright failure. The Elephant Man, whilst attempting to restart the flow of time, mistook the future for the past and sent the Universe spiralling into the age of the Dinosaurs. It was only due to the remaining robotic dogs that the Dinosaurs could be extinctified and the normal flow of time reinstated. Another attempt was to follow.

The large scale production of chemicals was an important development during the Industrial Revolution. The first of these was the production of sulfuric acid by the lead chamber process invented by the Englishman John Roebuck (James Watt's first partner) in 1746. He was able to greatly increase the scale of the manufacture by replacing the relatively expensive glass vessels formerly used with larger, less expensive chambers made of riveted sheets of lead. Instead of a few pounds at a time, he was able to make a hundred pounds (45 kg) or so at a time in each of the chambers.

The period of time covered by the Industrial Revolution varies with different historians. Eric Hobsbawm held that it 'broke out' in the 1780s and was not fully felt until the 1830s or 1840s,[2] while T.S. Ashton held that it occurred roughly between 1760 and 1830 (in effect the reigns of George III, The Regency, and George IV).[3]

Thanks to Artprice Images, Artprice's information network and its clients are experiencing a genuinely industrial revolution. Beyond the technological leap (ultimately more than 300 To) Artprice is opening up a new way to find information as a single Artprice subscription becomes attractive in previously neglected areas (Design, Antiques, Decorative Arts, Timepieces, Glassware, Antique cars etc) and with a different sort of client who can use the 34.2 million pages for pure documentary research (university, expertise, iconography etc) as well as for price levels and buying and selling. In every area linked with auctions, Artprice, through its agreements with Google, will join the Wikipedia encyclopaedia as one of the main information search tools on the global Internet.
