Internex online

Internex online

Internex online, usually known as io.org, was the first consumer dial-up ISP in Canada, formed by the merger of r-node and zooid BBS, two Bulletin board system and Usenet/uucp systems, in early 1993.

Aside from its grass roots and hack-ish beginnings, Internex Online was notable for an early commitment to provide free services (free access was available during non peak times), as well as an involved community.

Internex Online was the first home of iComm, a community initiative providing internet services to charitable and non-profit organizations.
