This is a mediawatch broadcast of the work I was doing in the early 90’s in using Bulletin Board System (BBS) technology for helping people. This was pre-internet world. It was fun then, learning and networking. Today we now have “Social networking” in the Web 2.0 era. How time have not change!!

1:28 – 1:42 was a new BBS technology called RIP Script, it really was amazing for it’s run, it required specialized terminal software such as Ripterm or a compatible terminal in order to view, but it was all point and click which really was amazing for it’s times especially for BBS systems. It had a short life span, however in the 90’s BBS software such as Excalibur and Worldgroup really revolutionized BBSing bringing near AOL quality interfaces to the BBS user [client side]. :)
these guys are the early ones when it came to the net….they had no clue what they were on the brink of!!!

That looked like all the hardware “Rusty and Eddies” BBS from the early 90’s.

lol!!! Pause at 1:11. They misspell “Access”! XD
The internet is 40 years old, but this is not the internet. This is a network of BBSs that this guy runs out of his house, all connected by people dialing into them via modem. These networks were really big in the 80’s and part of the 90’s too I think, but most of them were separate from the internet.
are your computers all 256″s with 4 megs of ram, and 32k dial up?
If you sold todays tech five years ago, you’d get the same result. No Youtube or iPhones, then.
I don’t think the title is correct,
This is still the internet,
I think it should say “world wide web”
The internet is 40 years old this year.

Oh. How good for you.. assholel

It’s pre-World-Wide-Web, but approximately 20 years post-Internet.
