RedBrick offers a great range of services to our members, and we are always looking for more to be able to offer. if you have any ideas feel free to mail us with your suggestions.
Since 1996, we have been providing people with an excellent, powerful and flexible UNIX environment. We have used Solaris, Linux and FreeBSD, some more than others.
First off, we give you disk space- having somewhere online to store files and mail is essential these days, especially if you log on from a wide range of locations. We also provide you with your own personalised mail account, and a great range of clients to read/write it with! Procmail and other mail filtering software is installed, so if you feel like it, you can heavily customise mail folders and really make the most of your mail account.
If you're feeling conversational and want to spread the love, you can use hey, an instant message program that lets you send messages to other users. You can also use the UNIX talk service for some one-on-one action. Our very own IRC server is great for meeting new people online, having group discussions, or just blabbing to the general Redbrick populace about your latest grievance.
The boards, as they're known, are equally great for having discussions with newly made friends, and discussions can be on any issue at all, from shopping to sex, and maybe even sex-shopping (although this is for the more discerning customer).
