The place where Bulletin Board Systems live on!


Post / Comment Guidelines


Reminisce with The BBS Documentary, viewable online here.


Find one of hundreds of BBSes running today using the lists found at The Telnet BBS Guide, BBS Guide, or IPTIA BBS Resource Site.


You will want to use a proper BBS compatible terminal to get the full experience: SyncTERM ^(win,mac,lin), Netrunner ^(win/lin), or mTelnet ^(win,os2)


Find oodles of software, text files, and people at The BBS Archives and The BBS Corner.


Create your own BBS with DayDream, EleBBS, Maximus, ENIGMA½, Mystic BBS, Renegade, Synchronet, or x/84.


fTelnet and HtmlTerm are Flash and HTML 5 telnet clients for access to BBSes via the web should you decide to start your own BBS.

If you are a SysOp or if you want your favorite BBS/Resource in the sidebar, drop one of the mods a line, and one will check it out. Please give the complete telnet address of the BBS so we can log in.

Grab yourself a copy of SyncTerm for whatever platform/OS you use. It has a built-in list of BBS addresses, start clicking on them, sign up for a few, check out the Telnet BBS Guide on the internet as well. Have fun!
