Welcome to Blinkenshell!

Hi there, and welcome to Blinkenshell.org! This is a free UNIX shell account service. I provide shell access on my server to any user for free, provided that you participate in the community (chat etc) and follow the rules.

The service is intended to create a community with users who are curious and likes to learn new stuff about computers and related technologies. This is a great place to be if you are looking for somewhere to learn about ["UNIX"], learn about programming/scripting or if you just want a place to run ["Info/IRC"] from. You can also create advanced websites with dynamic content and database storage. [:Info/About:More info].

The server is located in my basement and is not intended for any commercial use. It doesn't cost anything to use and does not provide any guaranteed uptime, availability, quality of service or any warranty.

If you want to sign up for an account, take a look at the [:Info/Signup:Signup Info].

If you have any questions or just want to chat, join the [:Info/IRC:chat channel]!
