Welcome to O'DonnellWeb in Gopherspace My first foray onto the Internet was Gopher via a gateway on a dialup BBS in the early 1990s. So here I am in 2025, finally creating something in Gopher space. It's kind of ridiculous, but what the hell. Ridiculous is fun. For now, you'll find some of my favorite books of the year here. And a phlog, as I'm apparently going to do that now.
