<h3><a name="t" href="http://www.genie.com/">GEnie</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Because JMS has been on GEnie talking about Babylon 5 since late 1991, GEnie
|
|
is a choice place to be for a Babylon 5 fan. On the GEnie Science Fiction
|
|
RoundTable, there are two Babylon 5 categories where JMS talks with the fans
|
|
about the show, both production and story info. Most of the information in
|
|
this FAQ came from this category. They are located at Page 471, Category 18
|
|
and 19. Archives of past messages are available in the GEnie SFRT files
|
|
areas, along with graphics files and the interactive demos are also available
|
|
in the file area. In honor of the fans who are involved with this group, the
|
|
specific location of Babylon 5 corresponds to the original location of the
|
|
GEnie topic (Grid Epsilon 470,18,22). A split of the GEnie SFRT in November,
|
|
1992 created the Babylon 5 category, moving the original topic into the new
|
|
category.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
ftp.midwinter.com contains an
|
|
<a href="/lurk/ftp/GEnie/">archive</a>

of most of JMS' GEnie messages about Babylon 5.
|
|
|
|
<h3><a href="http://www.aol.com/" name="aol">America Online</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
America Online is the home of an official, Warner Bros.-sponsored
|
|
Babylon 5 area (keyword: Babylon5). JMS and others participate in the
|
|
Babylon 5 message boards. AOL is the most common venue for real-time
|
|
chats with the cast and crew of Babylon 5. There are generally new pictures and
|
|
other files on the AOL site every Monday.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Interviews sometimes occur in the OMNI & DC-Online areas; the TV newsmagazine
|
|
EXTRA has also had some B5 events and has a number of B5 files available.
|
|
America Online users can also access the rec.arts.sf.tv.babylon5 newsgroup by
|
|
selecting EXPERT ADD NEWSGROUP from the Newsgroup screen and typing the
|
|
following: rec.arts.sf.tv.babylon5
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
ftp.midwinter.com contains an
|
|
<a href="/lurk/ftp/America-Online/">archive</a>
|
|
of recent JMS messages about Babylon 5, as well as transcripts of some
|
|
of the real-time chat sessions.

|
|
|
|
<h3><a href="http://www.compuserve.com/" name="cis">CompuServe</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
JMS is a regular participant on CompuServe's Babylon 5 Forum (keyword BABYLON5)
|
|
as well as the older SF & Fantasy Media 1 Forum. There are also file
|
|
libraries and weekly B5 conferences.
|
|
Much of JMS' message traffic from the B5 Forum is reposted in the Lurker's
|
|
Guide and in weekly updates on Usenet.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
An
|
|
<a href="/lurk/ftp/CompuServe/">archive</a>
|
|
of some of JMS' CompuServe messages is available.
|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="u">Other</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
JMS also frequents BIX, and lurks on other systems; there are Babylon 5
|
|
sections on other networks and BBSs around the world. These and other
|
|
networks and BBSs contain Babylon graphic files, text files, and forwarded
|
|
JMS postings.
