Just started watching "BBS" the documentary by Jason Scott. I have only watched the first segment where they talk about CBBS and how it all
started.
Anyone else watched this? I think it's older, but it's pretty
interesting so far. I have the DVD version that's 3 discs. I did start BBSing in around 1990 or so, and at the time there wasn't anything like
it.

Yup (I'm even in it, a bit). Glad you like it!

Cool! I'll have to keep my eyes open to see where you pop up. Any
hints?

I think it was just in the 'Make it pay' episode. Here's the original unedited interview with me for the BBS documentary, if you're ever
really bored and want to kill an hour (and probably feel a bit of vicarious embarassment for my over-inflated ego and lack of humility
at the time): https://youtu.be/OvMFKU04YTk

Wow! Thanks for the link, I enjoyed watching the unedited interview and
don't think you showed any instances of inflated ego or lack of
humility in the clip. Just a question, when was the interview? And when
was the documentary released?
I watched the first disk and noted that a select piece of the interview
was in the bonus clips on the first disk.
Hard to think that while I was just sitting back using bulletin board
systems, you were busy writing and making them better! I think it takes
a special sort of creativity to do that. So thanks!
Hope you have a wonderful day!

Hey, I love the doc, I watched if about 6 years ago, and was thinking about it again today wich spurred me to start looking for a BBS to
play with now. (Bringing me here, now.)
