The Pasco BBS Magazine is a monthly on-line magazine which is distributed
free of charge, as long as it is unaltered and complete. There are
absolutely no fees associated with displaying the magazine on bulletin
boards. It is the intention to keep this a free, not for profit magazine.
The Pasco BBS Magazine is Tampa Bay's longest running free on-line magazine,
having been published every month since January 1993. The magazine is
released by the 22nd of each month, with a deadline for submissions on the
15th.
