About this Site
This website was created as a digital archive to preserve and share information related to early computing history — with a special focus on ExecNet, one of the first LAN-based bulletin board systems (BBS) founded in 1986.
Our goal is to document the people, technology, and culture surrounding ExecNet, as well as provide broader historical context on BBS systems, early networking tools, and related software platforms like PCBoard and Novell NetWare.
Here, you’ll find:
- Historical write-ups
- Contributor and system operator profiles
- Technical terms and background information
- Archived documents and references
- Community-submitted stories and resources
ExecNet.com was created to ensure this history remains accessible and accurate for future generations. Whether you were part of ExecNet, a BBS user elsewhere, or are simply curious about the digital past, we welcome you.
