Welcome to gopherspace. |

|
|
Isn't it exciting? It's a trip back in time. Welcome to your past. |

|
Alright, so you want to know what this is? Well, gopher is an |
|
old protocol that was designed to easily allow the share of informa |
|
and files over the Internet. It contains hypertext menus that allow |
|
quick and easy navigation of gopherspace. |
|
This protocol predated the web as we know it (HTML), but is still |
|
alive today. |
|
|
|
So what's the point of it? Well, It's very easy to make a |
|
gopherspace; they are more like FTP sites, although that doesn't me |
|
that the only thing a gopherspace can be is a collection of files. |
|
can also display information in menus which gives us an amalgamatio |
|
both technologies. |
