    Quoting Mro to Dmxrob <=-

    regarding people going back to bbsing, I don't think people want what
    we have. they want their memes and they want to be a consumer. it's
    a totally different Thing than bbsing.

    I'll agree with you here. I've tried for years (back when I cared) to get
    my wife into the BBS. She's pretty intellegent and would have a lot to
    offer, however like you said she wants memes and music etc.

    The interface is also not friendly for people who are more modern computer users I think. No matter how simple it is it's not for people who didn't
    grow up with the interface.


    ... If you can't make it big, make it good.
