Community Networking -- The Native American Telecommunications Continuum Computer mediated communications -- has evolved exponentially each decade since the mid-1980’s. Pre-Internet exploration in the era of FidoNet and supported by dial-up modem equipment running over x.25 exchange switching does not seem possible to have existed at all. With three decades of change to reflect upon, questions remain today about whether the impact of technology and telecommunications has advanced tribal nationhood.
Keywords: Native American Telecommunications, Community Networking, Pre-Internet Telecommunications, Bulletin Board Systems, Computer Mediated Communications - Native American, Telecommunications - Questions of Impact on Tribal Nationhood
