Jason Scott writes: "Readers of Slashdot might remember some stories posted about a BBS Documentary that was being filmed. Well, we're at about a year of production and I've released a status report about the project, including some pictures, some statistics (over 120 hours of footage have been filmed!) and some information about where the project is heading. If you remember reading about it last year and are wondering what's up with it, check it out."

Although its not a documentary style history, have a look at Textfiles.com. Its an enormous archive of all sorts of text files which were on BBSs, back in the day.
It makes for some really interesting sessions. Have a beer while you drop down memory lane one night. I've done that. Every now and again you see some of your own files on there! :) cool.
