<H1>BBS Lists</H1>
<P>
BBS Lists provided a vital way for a new BBS to make itself known to the
community, a way that was much less annoying than posting your BBS Ad on
other, unwilling BBSes (Although a lot of BBSes had special sub-boards
for the posting of such ads). Usually run by a third party, these BBS Lists
help give a real feel for what the landscape unfolded into for the average
user.
<P>
Additionally, in the case of ASCII Express lines, these BBSes provided not
just the phone number, but the password you'd have to type in to actually
enter once you connected.
