Ward Christensen (born 1945 in West Bend, Wisconsin, United States) is the co-founder of the CBBS bulletin board, the first bulletin board system (BBS) ever brought online. Christensen, along with partner Randy Suess, members of the Chicago Area Computer Hobbyists' Exchange (CACHE), started development during a blizzard in Chicago, Illinois, and officially established CBBS four weeks later, on February 16, 1978. CACHE members frequently shared programs and had long been discussing some form of file transfer, and the two used the downtime during the blizzard to implement it.

  • Ward Christensen (West Bend, Wisconsin, Estats Units, 23 d'octubre de 1945) és el cofundador del tauler d'anuncis de la CBBS, el primer sistema de taulers d'anuncis (BBS) publicat mai en línia. Christensen, juntament amb el seu col·lega Randy Suess va començar a desenvolupar-lo durant una tempesta a Chicago, Illinois, i va establir oficialment CBBS quatre setmanes després, el 16 de febrer de 1978. Christensen va destacar per crear eines de programari per a les seves necessitats. Va escriure un sistema operatiu basat en cassets abans que els disquets i discs durs fossin habituals. Quan va perdre el codi font d'alguns programes va escriure ReSource, un desassemblador iteratiu per a l'Intel 8080, per ajudar-lo a regenerar el codi font. Quan necessitava enviar fitxers a Randy Suess, va escriure XMODEM. Jerry Pournelle va escriure el 1983 una col·lecció de programari de domini públic CP/M. "Probablement el 50 per cent dels programes realment bons van ser escrits per Ward Christensen, un benefactor públic". Christensen va rebre dos premis Dvorak el 1992 per a l'excel·lència en telecomunicacions, un amb Randy Suess per desenvolupar el primer BBS, i un premi a tota una vida "per contribucions destacades en les telecomunicacions del PC". El 1993 va rebre el premi Pioneer de la Electronic Frontier Foundation. Christensen va treballar a IBM des del 1968 fins a la seva jubilació el 2012. La seva darrera feina a IBM va ser d'especialista en vendes tècniques. (ca)

CACHE members frequently shared programs and had long been discussing some form of file transfer, and the two used the downtime during the blizzard to implement it. Christensen was noted for building software tools for his needs. He wrote a cassette-based operating system before floppies and hard disks were common. When he lost track of the source code for some programs, he wrote ReSource, an iterative disassembler for the Intel 8080, to help him regenerate the source code. When he needed to send files to Randy Suess he wrote XMODEM. Jerry Pournelle wrote in 1983 of a collection of CP/M public-domain software that "probably 50 percent of the really good programs were written by Ward Christensen, a public benefactor." Christensen received two 1992 Dvorak Awards for Excellence in Telecommunications, one with Randy Suess for developing the first BBS, and a lifetime achievement award "for outstanding contributions to PC telecommunications." In 1993, he received the Pioneer Award from the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Christensen worked at IBM from 1968 until his retirement in 2012. His last position with IBM was field technical sales specialist. In May 2005, Christensen and Suess were both featured in . (en)
