PicoSpan was made famous by the WELL.  However, you can use it for free
thanks the fine people at www.cyberspace.org.  YAPP, is mostly like
PicoSpan, but buggier.  It can be used at www.arbornet.org.

They are both shell-based systems.  telnet to either cyberspace.org or
arbornet.org and login as newuser.
