    I don't know if this system is still operational, but there was a
    system:
    bbs.iscabbs.com
    I don't know if it had or has a web interface, but until a couple of months ago I was able to login to it with telnet.

    There is Uncensored BBS which is the home of Citadel.

    Are there any active Citadel BBSes, with web interfaces, online?

    here's what it looks like

    Thanks, I will take a look.

    the telnet side looks weird. it's very alien to what we are used to.

    I know I've told this story multiple times, but my company ended up with a $400 phone bill because the lead developer set it up to poll every 10 minutes.

    Well I haven't heard the story! I can't believe the guy didn't listen to your idea. I remember running up my parents phone bill. Let me just say the outcome was a pink rear end!

    I had a telco broker who had some interesting ideas. He suggested I purchase call forward on busy service for the hub. It was $3/month. Set the call forward busy destination to the number in the toll area. Set the hub to call "itself". The line was busy, naturally, and forwarded to the destination for essentially a penny a call.

    Now that sir, is a crafty idea! Our phone company would charge long distance for a call to the next county.
