Bongusta update, January 2021
=============================

The New year is here, time for some updates in bongusta list.
I did
the usual stuff: deleted everything that didn't have a single
post in 2020 (except for xmanmonk - I will never delete him as
long as the phlog exists, sorry everyone else, but this is my
exception in the rule, I like the phlog), removed all broken
links and added several new phlogs.

The good news is that there are more additions than removals, so
the count increased from 75 to 76 aggregated phlogs. Will we
reach eighty anytime soon? And maybe a hundred?

-----> It's up to you! <-----

There may be many other phlogs I do not know about. If you do,
please let me know on my mail: [email protected]

There are some criteria that new phlogs need to meet though:

1. They have to exist for at least a month and be active,
  which means the author is still posting on them. Many, many
  phlogs in the past had just some kind of introduction, two
  or three posts after that, and then vanished into oblivion.
  I'd like to skip these and add quality content.

2. They need to have phlog as such. I'd like to keep aggregating
  just phlogs, not all of gopherholes. There are more and more
  incomers who don't distinguish phlog posts from other content
  of their gopher sites and find it to be a bit messy. If the
  phlog as a separate menu item, with post dates and names,
  it's even better, but as Bongusta is quite flexible, I can
  cope with various phlogging systems. But I can't quite guess
  which change on gopher is phlog and which isn't if author
  him/her-self doesn't say so.

Well and that's it.
