BIX : Java Glossary

I have left this tombstone entry for historical interest.
BIX
BIX (Byte Information Exchange). Byte Magazine’s online conferencing system that predates the Intenet. It died, and has been resurrected privately as Noise Level Zero nlzero.com. I have many megabytes of posts on all manner of topics on it.

To setup an account, telnet to nautilus.nlzero.com, enter nlz at the prompt, then hit new at the next prompt and follow the script. (Carefully, it’s a little buggy and misreading the directions can toss you out.) It will send you an e-mail which you need to respond to and be validated before you can post, but you can read on your first visit.

There are tips for getting Galahad, the CoSy newsreader, running.

Threatening to kill me or spouting obscenities has yet to persuade me to change my mind.
