What's new with WWW.MIT.EDU?

# The ``What's New'' Page

Hey, we may have lost a couple webmasters, but we just got a new one, too! Mike Bauer (mjbauer@lcs.mit.edu) is our newest webmaster. Be nice to him.

A fun new toy ... Madlibs. Code by mkgray, stories by various people ... and you, of course. (Still being polished). Speaking of silly toys, rei just wrote one: "The CyberMUD." (Hint: it's a game)

A pair of new services, not fully polished, but functional: a finger gateway and a machine information gateway. If you think that this is just another finger gateway, then you should try fingering at athena.dialup.mit.edu or any other hostname which resolves to more than one IP physical machine.

Please continue to send purely artistic criticism to Eri Izawa (rei@mit).

We upgraded our server to Plexus 3.0k.

Lots of MIT people are creating home pages. Web Fever has hit. :-)

Lots of new servers are popping up, too! Check these out!

Lots of people are using our server and it's holding up. It's cool.

The term is almost over here, so webmasters are hosed with classes, but we'll always be happy to take a break to deal with stuff. With six of us, we should typically get back to you within a few days.

Comments are appreciated, or you can send us mail! Or send us a Sparc 10 or an Alpha with a hard disk full of comments! Be creative.
