The BBS Documentary: A One Year Report

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the doing-things-thoroughly dept.

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."

    This is an incredibly boring long-dead niche subject, which absolutely no one cares about.

      Uhm, I'll watch you stupid whippersnapper.

      Why? Because BBSs were better than the fapping internet. They had a center. And community.

      AND WE ONLY HAD DIALUP, AND WE LIKED IT.

      AND WE HAD TO WHISTLE CARRIER TONE INTO OUR PHONES AND HOOK THEM INTO THE ACOUSTIC COUPLER AND WE LIKED IT.

      You phucking make me puke with your lack of respect, you little fuck. You think data compression came about because the internet needed it? You try pulling 5 megs through a 300 baud modem. You'll be crying for xmodem and kermit and pkzip in 10 seconds.

      Phuck.
