Here is an attemp to map gopher space in a useful maner
       
        
        The most active place to start exploring gopher
        are these 2 aggregators:
       
 (DIR)  Bongusta
 (DIR)  Tomassino's moku-pona
        
        These are updated daily so they are fun to follow.
       
        These are 2 'image board' style gopher site:
       
 (DIR)  3.5 chan
 (DIR)  1436 Chan   
       
        Here are a couple of server which shows the latest update
        on top which help finding fresh content:
       
 (DIR)  SDF
 (DIR)  Midnight Pub
 (DIR)  cosmic.voyage
       
        ____________________________________________________news site
       
        If you just want to hang out on gopher, even if the content
        comes from the surface web, you can read multiple new
       
 (DIR)  Magical News
       
        _______________________________________________gopher servers
       
        There are many servers with only one user. Self hosted or on 
        the cloud, they aren't too easy to find and follow. But there
        are also some more server that host multiple user. 
       
       
        CIRCUMLUNAR COLONIES

        administered but tightly interconnected public-access unix servers,

        a non-commercial basis to anybody who is interested in distributed
        digital communities built on traditional text-based technologies.
