Zines and bbs's are enterwined in many a strange twist in my life. While BBSs are harder to come by though Zines are still floating around in enough numbers to make me a happy readerboy. Things like Infiltrator, TheThresher, PatientZero and others still make a trip to places like Portland's Reading Frenzy a treasure hunt. Of course hunting around ebay recetnly got me a replacement copy of Semiotext(e)USA..gota love ebay.
In its day FactSheet5 was the google of zines.
BBS's, Blogs, Zines, Websites, Xeroxes, PDFs..all of these are spinnign round and round waxng and waning. There is something about paper that takes things to another place than online versions.
Hence why I started putting out paper zines (
http://countermoves.blogspot.com/) a few years ago after nearly a decade of nonpublishing in that format.
