Ask YC: How many people here were regional BBS users back in the day?
Just struck me that maybe the BBS era aligned with a lot of news.YC's hacker beginnings with online computer usage.
I, for one, began initially with a national Commodore community called QLink. I ran up ridiculous bills before hopping into the regional BBS scene, where I met my eventual wife and almost all of my most enduring friends.
What about you? Or are all of you too young for that era?
