Summary: From less than 500 capsules to 2,900 capsules in 24 months? That's how quickly Gemini is spreading.

THE end of November is fast approaching and the shortest day (in the northern hemisphere at least) is 4 weeks away. People may use the holidays to explore Gemini, not just as surfers but also as hosts.



"Techrights will have been on Gemini for two years some time later this winter."Gemini is still growing in terms of the number of unique hosts (it was 2878 at the middle of this month and now touching 2900), though it seems not so likely to exceed 3,000 (known to Lupa) capsules by the end of this year.

Techrights will have been on Gemini for two years some time later this winter. Back then there were only hundreds -- not thousands -- of known Gemino capsules.

There are 2893 capsules. We successfully connected recently to 2207 of them.
