Bonum Certa Men Certa

Historically Important Literature, Leaks, and Texts in Gemini Space

Summary: Recently we've been expanding Gemini Space (or Geminispace) with important material that's becoming harder to find on the World Wide Web and has thus far been impossible to find (not at all available) over Gemini Protocol

TODAY is the first day of our 16th year as a Web site. We're no longer just a Web site as we added a bunch of things like Bulletins (plain text, accessible from the command line or editors directly), Gemini, and IPFS. We've also moved our IRC channels to our own network. This is the direction we've long wanted to take; lock-downs have given us the luxury of extra time.



Not many sites manage to exceed 15 years in daily activity.

Archived Historical DocumentsTo celebrate this milestone we now have this new (and Gemini-only) section where we archive important documents. It will expand over time and, as the video above explains, a lot of this material lands in Gemini Space (or Geminispace) for the very first time. We need to grow and enrich that Internet space; we invite more people to join, not just as readers but also as authors. Gemini is far simpler in every way than running/managing/maintaining a Web site, it's just a little different because it is new and not yet ubiquitous. It should be taught everywhere, especially in schools (it's simple enough that even elementary school pupils can do it).

We've meanwhile made further enhancements to the "stats" page, as will later become visible in Git tracking.
