I just use nautilus, select Location from the Go menu menu, and you'll
get a location bar, enter in something like  ftp://wherever.nu/home/me
or whatever, and a rquester will pop up giving you the chance to enter
passwd/username, or select anonymous login. You can save that location,
(once you are there) as a bookmark in the Nautilus bookmarks. 

Note that you can use a lot of other protocols, including sftp, and smb
in the same way. (not gopher though :)
