I'm interested in reliable sources of information about imageboards (origins, history, etc).
May be some articles, bits of news or other information.
If you come across something like this feel free to post links here. May be some advices about where to start my search and I'm not banned on Google or Wiki;)

No. that was 0037, owner of the World 2ch Historical society. It's an interesting site, even though most of them is commentary and observations.
On my end (Yotsuba Society), we are in the works of publishing The Second Channel (2channel) and The Third Channel (Futaba Channel). Both of these papers contain new information not known to the American public until now, primarily because I was able to glean some information from the Japanese wikipedia and through some of my Historians.
world2ch.org is NOT reliable. Nor is it's author. That guy is nuts.
good to know. i want to do more research on the topic (imageboard history, origin).

Oh god, that's you? I remember you coming to 4chan's /g/ (or perhaps /x/) and asking for something like $1000 (!) in donations to create a Green Oval clone.
Then someone else did it for free.
