A search engine for Gopher works similar to a search engine for web ( Google & Co), but it is text ode only and searches Gopher sites and not Web sites. Examples of Gopher search engines are Veronica ( gopher://hal3000.cx:2347/7 ) and Jugtail ( gopher://hal3000.cx:3000/7 ) "what the heck is a gopher site" Gopher was used in the internet before Web became popular. Normally Gopher is text mode only, no images, no multimedia, and no scripts ( JavaScript/JScript, VBScript, Java, and so on). There are no great pictures, but the advantage of text mode Surfing is that it works much faster for the client does not have to download large graphics files, only text, and in text mode it is easier to find what you need. If you are really searching for information and not just walking around in the web without knowing what to do then images are not importand, and you need only text - except (perhaps ) you are searching for some special picture or photo. Some fans are still working on Gopher protocol and there is even support for 3D in the last versions, but Gopher is not widely used today - it is not as popular as Web where user can just click, click, click without thinking why.
