I do most of my "networking" via this FidoNet point, and my two Internet
accounts. I use GEnie to communicate with a handful of friends who don't
have Internet access. It's only $4.95/month for unlimited evening and 
weekend access, and no surcharge for extra messages, so it meets my needs
on that front admirably. Also, MicroPhone has a good "Mac" interface script
for it, and my friends with PCs can use Aladdin.
