4chan is not /b/ but /b/ certainly is the area of 4can that garners the most interest.
"4chan is one of the most popular collections of ImageBoards on the internet. It was started in 2003 as an English equivalent to the extremely popular Japanese site 2channel. It was created as an offshoot of the popular humor website Something Awful's message board. (It should be noted that Something Awful's slogan is "The Internet makes you stupid.") 4chan initially began dedicated to Japanese animation (anime) with smaller sections dedicated to other topics. ImageBoard software is based upon users uploading images to share and discuss (anonymously if one chooses). Over the past couple of years, this has largely spun out of control. 4chan itself is broken down into a series of ImageBoards, each with its own theme. They are referred to by their theme or by their directory listing. For example, "/a/" is the "Anime" board, "/b/" is the "Random" board, and "/v/" is the "Video Games" board."
