Wired Magazine has a gopher. It includes many articles. Try
gopher gopher.wired.edu

I've also added it to the CAF whatsnew server. Try
gopher gopher.eff.org 5070

Er, um.... try instead

gopher wired.com

It is indeed up, on an experimental basis still - it hasn't appeared to
be hosing our net yet (though 5 connections/minute is approaching saturation
on the 16.8Kbaud modem). Enjoy!

If you use Mosaic or another WWW client you get a nicer view using

How would I connect up via telnet to wired's gopher? My site doesn't
support gopher directly. 8-(

Thanks!
