Well, we grew again! Everyone should now note that the FIDO Freemasonry echo has now been merged with FMnet! FMnet! was established over a year ago as a stand alone BBS network to the BBS world. We later picked up an Internet Listserv function which was recently expanded into a Newsgroup. Please note that it is still all of the above. We cross-post everything between the BBS network, Listserv and Newsgroup on Internet. Now the network is being cross-posted on the FIDO Freemasonry echo as well. The intense reality of this event is remarkable. This venture is now avaialble to practically every BBS system as well as every user of the Internet. Commercial systems such as Delphi, Genie, Compuserve and AOL also carry us through their Internet gateways. This literally makes us the most modem accessible masonic communications venture available. It literally brings Masonry one big step closer to the universal brotherhood it was intended to be. Within hours practically any mason with a modem can now communicate with his brothers around the world. The merging with The FIDO Freemasonry echo was a logical and needed move. They offer FMnet! the needed coverage we never had in the BBS world through our own stand alone system. FMNet! offers FIDO's Freemasonry echo the benefit of Internet interaction. This is something I'm sure they would have done eventually but since we were already doing it, it was only logical that we become one system and accomplish all of this growth now by simply cross-posting between the two systems. On behalf of the FMnet! users I would like to say thanks to the FIDO Freemasonry people for allowing us to ride the backbone of the mighty FIDO network with you and also extend a hearty welcome to you all as you begin to "surf" the Internet with us.
