Summary: Geminispace.org is born; it was announced a day ago and promoted, with Bubble being unveiled to the public. Discovery of new Gemini pages will hopefully be made easier, including collaboration and interaction across capsules and users.

eminispace.org has been unveiled. Over the World Wide Web it serves the basic page shown below, promoting its author's Gemini client Lagrange and some technical documentation (for now).

One thing Gemini has long lacked is "discovery" -- in other words the ability to find/discover new "content". For our own sake we've made this page that updates every 60 minutes, but its functionality is very limited/basic. Geminispace.org can do a better job at it. It's a much-needed expansion of Cosmos, another project from a Finnish "Graphics/multimedia researcher at Nokia". ⬆
