Welcome to my humble spot on the shore!
Maybe we can learn and do things together.
===============================================

Wow, I didn't realize there were so many others
looking seriously at, and actually using, the
Nex and NPS protocols!
Thank you for the Japanese translations that
you made available here!
Like Gemini, Nex is not intended to replace or
compete with http or other protocols, but it is
another cool tool for our bag of tools.
I like what one of the responders said:
I think the appeal of nex is that you can
very explicitly browse it straight from the
command line, with relatively easy to
understand commands: No client required.
It's not fancy, and not trying to be.
But even though it is simple, I do believe that
more can be done with it than what we see now.
By the way, I am not A.I. !
===============================================
Humbled and honored that this spot on the shore
has been used as an example of the nex protocol
over on fellow shore resident balloon's
gemini station!
=> gemini://station.martinrue.com/balloon
Several people commented on the post.

-----------------------------------------------
quoting another shore member ( thresh ):
I've been exploring gopher, gemini, finger, spartan.
Each protocol implies a different relationship
between reader and writer.
HTTP says "here is everything, take what you want."
Gopher says "here is a menu, choose."
Gemini says "here is a page, follow links."
Nex says "here is a path, see what's there."
===============================================

of other nex locations:

or your web browser to the web portal:

===============================================
Welcome to new shore resident fu-sen
fu-sen has embraced the nex protocol and
even maintains a nex station.
time for me to learn Japanese!

From fu-sen I learned of an online emulator
for MSX BASIC
It is an 1988 version BASIC, looks fun!

single candle, and the life of the candle will
not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by
being shared.
