Why  Gopher?  

Think  about  your web experience these days. Do you really enjoy it any
more?  There  are  more ads than content on most pages, and the majority
of  the load time for ANY page is the ads... which then proceed to cover
over  the  content  you  visited the page to see in the first place, dim
your  entire  browser  window  while  so doing, flash and jump along the
sides,  top  and bottom of the page ... and a variety of other behaviors
that are simply incredibly annoying. 

While  the  web  gets  ever  denser,  ever  more cluttered and ever more
frustrating  to  use,  Gopher  continues  to  tunnel  along  in  sublime
simplicity.  No  jarring ads, no pop over or pop under windows, no video
crawlers  clamoring  for  your  attention...  just pure content. All the
content,  all the time, and nothing else. The elemental simplicity of it
all is SO refreshing. 

Why  Gopher? No ads, no distractions, no annoyances. Get the content you
visited  a  page  to see, and just the content. Simply stated, Gopher is
faster, more productive and more enjoyable to use. 

THAT is why Gopher!
