- The notice looks ok. I am interested in attending on 25 Aug.
-
- I would like the Triangle to have a bbs similar to, based on, or actually
- using the Freeport software. I heard or read somewhere on the freenets
- that the software could be rented for $1.00 per year. I hope that is true.
- The Cleveland and Youngstown freenet systems of organization are the most
- attractive to me.
-
- I am a registered user of all the freenets except Medina and Lorain. The
- menu systems took me some time to learn when I first started exploring. I'm
- not sure I would suggest any changes though. The organization of the
- information is reasonably well laid out.
-
- Considering the number of computer, networking, telecommunications, and
- related businesses in this area, there may be many opportunities for local
- companies to offer assistance in their fields of expertise in developing a
- community based and supported bulletin board system.
