In the early 1970's, a couple companies made program automation systems for radio stations that used looped shift registers for memory. They were being continuously clocked and when the clock counter matched the address register holding the address of the data you were looking for, the data was captured out of the shift register. The shift register then continued on). By the way, thanks to those on this list who recommended the ISD speech chips. I'm now using them along with a speech library from Quadravox. Sounds great!
