+I have found a personal wiki/knowledgebase to be an immensely valuable asset. It
+is the place where I record not only the scripts I've written and how I've set
+up my computers and servers, but also other things such as recipes, the books in
+my library, little bits of knowledge and wisdom, and more.
+
+The primary medium for the wiki is a Gemini site.
+[Gemini](https://gemini.circumlunar.space) is an alternative to HTTP which
+excels at efficiently delivering information in like the original HTTP-based web
+was intended to do, but has since strayed far from. It uses its own protocol and
+has its own set of [gemini-based
+software](https://gemini.circumlunar.space/software/).
+
+You can access my knowledgebase using the following Gemini URL: <a
+href="gemini://wiki.paritybit.ca">gemini://wiki.paritybit.ca</a>. If you are
+unsure which client to use, I highly recommend
+[Lagrange](https://github.com/skyjake/lagrange).
+
+If you wish to delve into the knowledgebase from the program you're currently
+using to read this page, you can use a [gemini
+proxy](https://proxy.vulpes.one/gemini/wiki.paritybit.ca);
