WWIV is a brand of bulletin board system software that reached peak popularity from the late 1980s through the mid-1990s. The modifiable source code allowed a sysop to customize the main BBS program for their particular needs and aesthetics. WWIV also allowed tens of thousands of BBSes to link together, forming a worldwide proprietary computer network, the WWIVnet, similar to FidoNet. Today, the software continues to be developed and still used to run modern BBS systems, as well as WWIVnet.
