RIP CompuServe

AOL has finally pulled the plug [basexblog.com] on CompuServe, one of the main predecessors to the internet back in the 80’s. CompuServe was one of the first multi-user online systems where users could chat with each other in real time. This was back in the day of mainly single-user BBS’s. Interestingly, CompuServe charged by the hour, not a flat monthly fee.
