From the looks of it, when I first wrote this article I intended to make a separate one for the Matrix. Given that a) both were the same BBS, just the names changed and b) it was the Matrix longer than it was America On-Line, I'm not sure that makes sense. I'm thinking now there should just be one article covering the BBS's entire existence.

I think one article would be sufficient, but it would be nice to have a simple redirect to the AOL page from the Matrix page. The original BBS that Rocky started in the early '80s was named "Birmingham BBS" which eventually became America On-Line and then the Matrix. There was a nice B'ham News article written sometime in the early '90s that interviewed Rocky and gave a lot of history. I saved the article, but unfortunately I put it in a "safe spot" so that I wouldn't lose it, and it's still there to this day, buried in a box or a file cabinet.

Revision as of 13:03, 5 January 2018
One or two articles?
From the looks of it, when I first wrote this article I intended to make a separate one for the Matrix. Given that a) both were the same BBS, just the names changed and b) it was the Matrix longer than it was America On-Line, I'm not sure that makes sense. I'm thinking now there should just be one article covering the BBS's entire existence. Any thoughts? --Lkseitz (talk) 23:01, 4 January 2018 (PST)
- I think one article would be sufficient, but it would be nice to have a simple redirect to the AOL page from the Matrix page. The original BBS that Rocky started in the early '80s was named "Birmingham BBS" which eventually became America On-Line and then the Matrix. There was a nice B'ham News article written sometime in the early '90s that interviewed Rocky and gave a lot of history. I saved the article, but unfortunately I put it in a "safe spot" so that I wouldn't lose it, and it's still there to this day, buried in a box or a file cabinet.
