Hello fellow geminoids,

I have been watching the Gemini Project from afar for some time, but only
recently took a close look.  With the spate of "announcing..." emails recently,
I thought I'd join the fun.

After a bit of hand-holding from solderpunk, I successfully installed Molly
Brown on rawtext.club, and we're off the ground.  gemini://rawtext.club
currently only hosts a mirror of the content on the server's http and gopher
sites, but I will soon link to user directories as well. 

Beyond simply hosting a main page with some neat figlet text, I have been
trying to think about unique gemini content to post.  I am reading Herman and
Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent again (I'm obsessed with the problem of the
corrupted role of news and social media in "democratic" societies) and I have
thought about posting a short book review.  Would that kind of content interest
anyone?  I think that book and similar works are a really strong motivational
backdrop for this growing activity of the decentralized internet.

Has anyone written a gemini server in awk yet?  That might be a fun challenge
too...

</end of "announcing..." email>

Stay safe everyone,
cmccabe

I would love to read that kind of content, especially if it gets added
to CAPCOM.
