Community Memory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Community Memory was the first public computerized bulletin board system. Established in 1972 in Berkeley, California, it used an XDS-940 timesharing system in San Francisco connected via a 110 baud link to a teletype at a record store in Berkeley to let users enter and retrieve messages.
