lolwut
Usenet was (and still is) one of the oldest public Internet communities evar. It was founded in 1980 and used not the World Wide Web, but instead a newsreader program. It was a newsgroup community, in other words, kinda like /. and Digg to some degree. They practiced a theory known as "netiquette" in which you speak scholarly and don't make stupid posts.
Know your Internet history, olol

Oh, that's not all. There's also something called FidoNet that operates entirely separately from the Internet we know today.

So it's like an Outernet?
Or the Intranet?
I'd enjoy it.
It'd be quite a bit better than today's negative-IQ internet population.

Really, the entire concept is that everyone does an equal part in running this network. I'd like to try it myself but the website is so freaking confuzzling that I don't know where to begin :P
