The week before last I had the opportunity to deliver a "flash talk" at a work meetup. I opted to present a summary of what I've learned while adding support for Finger and Gopher protocols to the WordPress installation that powers DanQ.me (I also hinted at the fact that I already added Gemini and Spring '83 support, and I'm looking at other protocols).

The presentation is a shortened, Automattic-centric version of a talk I'll be delivering at Oxford Geek Nights tomorrow. If you're in or around Jericho, Oxford tomorrow, come say hi!

I'm hoping to be speaking at Oxford Geek Nights 53 (22 Feb 2023, https://oxford.geeknights.net/)!

My working title: "Yesterday's Internet: Today!" I'm hoping to drum up some local interest in retro tech like Gopher and Finger as well as modern homages like Gemini and Spring '83!

> You feel it, don’t you? They’re all crumbling, the platforms of the last decade. It’s unsettling, but/and also undeniably exciting. Tall trees fall in the forest, and light streams down, nourishing places it hasn’t reached in ages.

> Indeed, I want to make a case for protocols — for whole little social networks — as investigations and experiments. It doesn’t take a million users, or a thousand, or even a hundred, to learn genuinely interesting and important things: about the protocols themselves, about new ways of relating online, about people in all their glorious weirdness.

@junosz Yes.

And I want to see it laid out like a bulletin board, in one screen.

I've spent the summer playing with Robin Sloan's #Spring83 protocol but it's only now, as its nights get longer, that I've finally finished the key functionality of the server I wanted to implement - STS-6:

To all #spring83 and web garden fans: in 2011 Olia Lialina and I created "Once Upon," fully working implementations of social networks for Netscape 4: http://1x-upon.com/

In that version of "facebook," every user can edit a message that is loaded in a frameset.

I wonder if there is a name for things like this and #spring83 yet
