NineJackNine
============

"I started NineJackNine (9J9), 608-274-1904, in 1988 as an
antidote to all of the techie-oriented BBSes that were in
operation at that time. It carried nothing but non-technical
Fidonet conferences, plus a game or two (a modified version of
Pyroto Mountain was the most popular). 9J9 also had a strong bent
toward material of more interest to women, who I believed were
very under-represented in the online world at that point. In 1991,
after attending Fidocon in Colorado and hearing the Gospel
According to Jack Rickard and Phil Becker, I moved 9J9 over to
TBBS (and to 608-256-5697), bumped it up from two incoming lines
to four incoming lines, and added a dedicated Internet connection
that allowed people to use telnet, gopher, and to (eventually)
browse the web using Lynx. I believe 9J9 was the first BBS in the
area to offer live Internet connectivity." - Ed Almasy
