Maybe use a place like flounder, midnight pub, or station to get started with a gemlog. If you are up to it, a tilde account to ssh into and just edit files with vim... I wrote a little program to generate index pages, but it's easy enough to do by hand in the beginning.
I don't think there's a general answer to a question like this. What's more important to me is why the person I'm talking to might be interested in Gemini in the first place. What do they dislike about the modern Web? Do they simply want to browse Gemini, or do they want to post writings and have a presence? How comfortable would they be with concepts such as using a file for user authentication (client certificates) instead of a password? It's important to understand a prospective Geminaut's desires before one can determine if Gemini will satisfy them--and different people get satisfaction out of Gemini in very different ways.

Gemini n00b Q Say someone is new to Gemini, what would you suggest them to do? what to read? where to write? should they sync their WordPress blog to Gemini? Any and all tips are appreciated.
