Bulletin board

A bulletin board is a surface intended for the posting of messages, for example public ones may advertise items wanted or for sale, announce events, or provide information. Bulletin boards are often made of a material such as cork to facilitate addition and removal of messages, as well as a writing surface such as whiteboard or blackboard. A bulletin board which combines a pinboard (corkboard) and writing surface is known as a combination bulletin board.

Bulletin boards can also be entirely in the digital domain and placed on computer networks so people can leave and erase messages for other people to read and see, as in a bulletin board system.
