Welcome to the LABBS web site.
The LABBS has grown from its original role as a dial-up BBS system serving a local area, into a web based community site. We still retain our original ethics of providing Low Cost and FREE services for the community, and are constantly working to improve our portfolio. LABBS is sponsored by Lander Associates, and Mobile Computer Services.
Our Mission
To provide Low Cost and/or FREE useful services to our community.
Who We Are
LABBS.COM is run privately, and uses SuSE Linux on a home based system to make services available over the Internet.
Formally the LABBS was a dial-up bulletin board service, providing electronic mail services through fidonet. Originally opening in February 1996, the dial-up services were discontinued in December 2001.
Development of web based services has been ongoing for some time, speed of development being restricted by the need to learn about new operating systems and software. We now provide web hosting and mail hosting services for a number of affiliated domains, along with web site tracking services.
The research and development of new services is constantly being undertaken, the impetus being provided by our sponsors needs, and the needs of our community. Over time we expect our service portfolio to grow.
LABBS.COM is the result of much hard work on the part of Chris, who has a wide experience of computing.
