The culture of bbs might be leaving/dead, but the information lives on. there is a gentleman, jason scott, working on a tv documentary on bbs's, i met him at rubicon briefly and it is looking quite amazing. However, he has also put together a huge repository of textfiles from bbs's, a list of active bbs's, etc. It is a huge repository of information for this culture, could launch a few hundred theses/dissertations, if people had time to dig through it all. all of it is linked from-> http://www.textfiles.com/ more specifically the documentary information is here: http://www.bbsdocumentary.com/ -- jeremy hunsinger http://www.cddc.vt.edu/jeremy cddc/political science http://www.cddc.vt.edu 526 major williams hall 0130 http://www.dromocracy.com virginia tech -under construction blacksburg, va 24061 540-231-7614 this email was sent from my office
