Eskimo North BBS

[Nanook <nanook@eskimo.com>]

     Eskimo North started as a single line BBS in 1982, when we went to a
Unix system in 1985, for a while we lost that.  But eventually got something
running called mmbbs which basically provided a room system interface for
news.

     But after the Internet came into being and we transitioned into an ISP,
interest in the login to shell text based system dwindled.

     About two weeks ago (July 30th) I put online a new web-based BBS based
upon phpBB.  It's been a slow start but conversations have been picking up
recently.

     Like the original single line BBS running on a Trs-80 model III in 1982,
it is free to everyone.  You do not have to have an account on Eskimo North,
the BBS is free, registration is free.  It does require mail validation (that
is you apply, it e-mails you a URL in e-mail, and then you click on that URL
and you're account is registered).
