Gemlog.blue is a journal hosting service for the gemini protocol. Think if it like an even lower tech livejournal. It is geared toward users that do not currently know much about ssh, sftp, scp, rsync, etc. and our intention is to allow them the opportunity to participate in the small internet... via the web (yes, yes: hiss! boo!).
There is a real need for people to have simple ways to communicate and gemini's focus on longform writing, as opposed to the megabytes of downlaod for a byline and two paragraphs (on a good day) found on the web, make it ideal for people to actually take time to communicate. It would be a shame for that to be only available to those that can program, sysadmin, etc.
As such, gemlog.blue offers a very simple, stripped down, web interface[1] to allow people to sign up for accounts and post to their gemlog. The website uses no JavaScript, cookies, or other persistent information in the client. It stores the absolute minimum of information on the server.
If you know someone that you keep telling about gemini, but joining a pubnix or hosting their own server is too much of a technical burden: send them our way to dip a toe in (hopefully they will want to take the next step and learn about those things in order to overcome the shortcomings of this platform: not as much customizability, lack of file upload, etc).
Eventually we will be setting up a spacewalk[2] feed here, but until then please browse around:
