Title: Ghost town dial-up BBSes still online
There are a few ghost-town dial-up BBSes [bulletin board systems]
still alive and kicking, and you can connect to them using VoIP and
your machine's modem. They're abandoned towns with half-finished
multiplayer games, mouldering message boards, and the occassional old
coot holding court.

Hmmm...how long has the term "ghost town" been applied to abandoned cyberspace areas?...
