# MONOLOGUED
Monologued is an implementation of an
[RFC1288](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1288) protocol server in Go.
That's right. Monologued is a
*[Finger](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_protocol)* server.
# WHY‽‽‽‽
While what I really wanted was to
[learn Rust](https://github.com/elfsternberg/monologued), work decided that
Go was a better choice. Since I have to learn it, this seemed like the
best way to go about it. Still not thrilled with the decision, but maybe
I'll get a blog post out of it.
# Status
Monologued is still very much not working. Don't even bother
downloading. It's mostly something to cut my teeth on while I try to
figure out how Go works.
# Thanks
Thanks to my friend Nathaniel for the answer to my original question,
"In a movie, when the villain is explaining his plans at length, what is
that called?" Nathaniel explained that "He's monologuing," and now you
know why it has that name.
