Hello everyone,
I'd like to share my book, "BBSs: Precursors of the Internet - Our Journey." The book tells the story of the BBS movement in Brazil and how it helped pave the way for the Internet during the 1980s and 1990s. It covers the early days of dial-up modems, bulletin board systems, message exchanges, file sharing, FidoNet, and the communities that connected people long before the Web became part of everyday life.
For those who remember logging in at 2400 or 9600 baud, running a BBS, exchanging messages across networks, or witnessing Brazil's transition from BBSs to the Internet, this is a journey back to a remarkable era of digital history.
From BBSs to the Internet: the Brazilian story of how we first got online. https://ecodigit.com/bbsen/
I'd love to hear your memories of the BBS era, whether in Brazil or anywhere else in the world. submitted by /u/Historical_Waltz7412 [link] [comments]
