1978 – The first computer bulletin board system is created (CBBS in Chicago).



I remember dialing up KBBS back in the early 90s...


Pinning Hopes on Computer Bulletin Boards : People are starting home businesses by offering services that help hi-tech aficionados reach the information superhighway.

BY MICHAEL BROADHURSTAUG. 2, 1994 12 AM PT

    Thousands of Southern Californians have discovered a route to the information superhighway through a spare bedroom in Greg Gooden’s Van Nuys home.

    As many as 60 people convene there at once. Some socialize or play games, others use a library, some pick up their mail. Most stay for hours and many linger far past midnight.

    Gooden doesn’t actually see these people. Instead that visitor traffic communicates over computers and through his own local computer bulletin board company called The Annex. “You can get almost any kind of information you need straight through your computer,” Gooden said. “It’s like going to the library without leaving the house.”
