Gopher Archie, Veronica and Jughead

[RPB]

Ok, anyone remember gopher, ftpArchie and Veronica?

I found a gopher site (I looked years ago and the last one I found was Israel Govt)

Found one today

gopher://gopher.quux.org/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

gopher://gopher.floodgap.com/0/gopher/welcome" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


http://gopher.quux.org:70/Government/US ... /jnl95.txt" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Yes, Firefox (and some other browsers) can be used as a Gopher browser if you misplaced your Gopher and can't find Veronica and Jughead

For those who don't know what I'm talking about:

Internet Exploder may not support Gopher now?

I feel old, but I remember way before that, before Al Gore invented Aarpanet.The Internet, back when there was only BBS and I had to phone long distance to California to connect to one.

nope,
Out of curiosity I opened Internet Excploder too and clicked the gopher links,
Internet Exploder just says "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
Firefox and others get it just fine though.
I'm thinkin because it isn't a WEB page but a GOPHERspace lol

IE can't do what it used to do anymore ... they "Improved" it?

I must admit that I had completely forgotten about them! Of course, I just started getting into networking about that time.
