Bulletin board system - Shareware | | Bulletin board system - Shareware: Encyclopedia II - Bulletin board system - Shareware | | Much of the "Shareware" movement was started via sharing software through BBSes. A notable example was Phil Katz's PKARC (and later PKZIP, using the same ".zip" algorithm that WinZip and other popular archivers now use); also Wolfenstein 3D and Doom from id Software and many Apogee games.

A complex system of message boards devoted to different topics (humor, movie reviews, anonymous posting, flirtations) were available based on user rankings which were denoted by 'magic-using' monikers (Evokers, Sorcerors, Wizards being the highest). The callers regularly met for monthly "Jousts", where the attendees traded software, played Ultimate Frisbee and 'socialized'. Run by the mysterious Lord Zarchon. Many related boards sprung up from hangers-on and rivals to Lord Zarchon (The Citadel, Realm of the Pink Dragon, Freedom Forest). Closed forever in the late Eighties before the Internet explosion. | | |
