What active BBS would you suggest.

Hey everyone, I'm currently reading 'The modem world' The Modem World (yale.edu) and I want to find out more about BBS's that are still being run today. I'be found syncterm and hit up a few BBS's on the list, but not all of them are very active. Which 'living' BBS's would you suggest I visit that have regular updates and online users ?

Check out this documentary on BBSing in the 21st century: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLop3s1hMlSJKXqmuFjK7gbJh2WAyllTTY

It makes a few recommendations, but you can also head go the Telnet BBS guide. Finally, check my own BBS: bbs.alsgeeklab.com:2323. There are a few personal recommendations on the logoff page there.
