   Today, 46 Years ago the first #bbs goes online.

   On February 16th 1977 in Chicago (IL,USA) Ward
   Christensen and Randy Suess are about to finishing the last steps before switching the #CBBS #online.

   The CBBS was the first Computerized #bulletin #board #system and would not only mark the Milestone for the Onlineage. It also allowed to invent and grow subcultures like the #demoscene. If your computer had a modem attached to it you could explore the world though it, since you're no longer physical bound to a location to do so.

   In the upcoming years of #bbsing the #ansi char set would spark a whole #ArtScene that is still
   present and activ today. The #ANSIart Scene. Even the exchange of text messages and files would break out of the local BBS. Tom Jennings created the #fidonet which was no less than a network that spans the world and allows the communication beyond all borders.
