[Meme] Gemini is Very Large Already, Now a Collaborative Directory of Geminispace (CDG) is Available to Mimic DMOZ or Yahoo! of the 1990s

Gemini's size



Summary: Gemini's impact soars and the Geminispace's size is still growing; it's very reminiscent of the Web of the 90s and now there's this new and collaboratively-edited directory of Gemini capsules [1, 2] (the above counts over 2,100 but there are many more that are islands and aren't known about; the crawling is limited to a maximum of 10,000 URLs, so there must be millions of pages in Gemini by now)
