Hey everyone,
I've just set up a new news site, News.php. It's basically a mirror of
Google News, with a layout similar to 68k.news. You can pass the same
query strings to it as you would to Google News in order to get a
customized feed.
It runs as a cgi script, and articles are generated dynamically with
another cgi script, reader.php, which can be used independently to
"reader mode"-ify articles into gemtext.
News.php is here: gemini://illegaldrugs.net/cgi-bin/news.php
reader.php is here: gemini://illegaldrugs.net/cgi-bin/reader
Sources are here: https://tildegit.org/sose/News.php
and here: https://tildegit.org/sose/reader.php
Hope it proves useful to some,
- sose

That's really neat, thank you for doing this. Some people have had some
concerns about the legal aspects of mirroring, but I think 68k.news is a
lot more high profile, so you'll hear about something happening to them
well before they come for you.
