The GEnie Apple II RoundTable Bulletin Board (A2 RT BB) was the section of GEnie's bulletin board system dedicated to Apple II-related posts and discussions. Like modern social media, participants made text posts that others could read and respond to.
The bulletin board was divided into numbered categories. Category #16 was for discussions related to Eamon; others included #3 (for Real-Time Conferences); #17 (for telecommunications and modems); #20 (Apple Assembly Line), etc.
Eamon category
GEnie sysop Chet Day set up the bulletin board's Eamon category in October 1989 and over the next eight years it attracted at least 369 messages. Users could make posts to any of twelve topics.
