<h1>RE: ddevault, Is this a good idea?</h1>
<p>I want to reply, not to the aggregator idea (I do like it), but to the last paragraph here:
<p>
<ul>
<li><a href="gemini://drewdevault.com/2020/11/15/RE-Is-this-aggregator-idea-good.gmi">RE: RE: RE: RE: ....</a>
</ul>
<p>
<blockquote>And an aside: I generally dislike this approach of using our gemlogs to have discussions via "RE: post title" and such-with. Isn't this better suited to the mailing list?</blockquote>
<p>
<p>I don't think so -- there's a bunch of RE's that aren't about gemini the protocol at all (see: 5Qs, etc).  You can always check backlinks to see a "thread" here:
<p>
<ul>
<li><a href="gemini://gus.guru/backlinks?tilde.team/~ew0k/is-this-aggregator-idea-good.gmi">for Is This Aggregator Idea Good?</a>
</ul>
<p>
<p>Now, that being said, I *do* think that Shannon is (a) a great name and (b) a pretty good idea -- tho we already have CAPCOM and Spacewalk.  But .  Why not a third?!
<p>
<p>Eventually I'm going to set up the first two on breadpunk.club (or here?) with GUS's known URLs and known feeds lists.  Might as well try a Shannon too :)
<p>
<p>Stay tuned.

<p>:^) Of course, we could reimplement webmentions in gemini ... maybe call them RadioBursts, or why not EMPs?
