AppleInsider | Apples secret "Back to My Mac" push behind IPv6: 5:33am 3 reviews internet, apple, ipv6, computer-networking
http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/08/08/19/apples_secret_back_to_my_mac_pu...; Apple doing more IPv6 stuff, helping to push us all in the right direction ... FTA - "The advantages of IPv6 are both obvious and largely invisible. Most users won't even notice the move to IPv6, as DNS handles the IP addressing details in the background. The paradox is that while the Internet desperately needs IPv6, few see any reason to rush toward it. There's no obvious killer application of IPv6 to offset the considerable expense of upgrading all of the critical routers and other equipment that makes up the Internet. Routers typically run BSD or Linux; Microsoft's software dominance on the desktop isn't even relevant in the world of routers. However, Apple's AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule devices are in widespread use among consumers. Earlier this year, NPD reported that Apple now has greater than ten percent market share among retail sales of WiFi N routers. Apple's WiFi N routers support acting as an IPv6 node or tunneling through the IPv4 Internet to access IPv6 services (below). They also include an IPv6 firewall supporting incoming IPSec authentication and Teredo tunnels (used to get through NAT on the other end). Apple's nearly silent support for IPv6 is interesting in itself, but what's more interesting is that Apple also has two killer apps in hand for promoting IPv6, the market power to engage uptake, and a strong business model for benefitting from IPv6 adoption."

InternetNews Realtime IT News - Junipers Big IPv6 in China: Aug 19, 7:20am 1 review internet, china, ipv6, juniper
http://www.internetnews.com/infra/article.php/3567921/Junipers+Big+IPv6+in+Ch...; FTA - "What may turn out to be the world's largest IPv6 network is going to be using Juniper Networks's routing platform to handle the next generation of Internet traffic. Juniper has announced that the China Next Generation Internet (CNGI) IPv6 project will be powered by Juniper's M- and T-series routing platforms. Financial terms of the deal were not publicly disclosed. China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) launched the CNGI initiative in 2003 with the goal of creating a countrywide IPv6 backbone. CNGI is projected to include 39 GigaPOP network points of presence covering 20 cities across China. "

The Critics Need a Reboot. The Internet Hasnt Led Us Into a New Dark Age.: Aug 19, 7:00am 1 review internet, science, knowledge
http://www.wired.com/culture/culturereviews/magazine/16-09/st_essay; FTA - "On the contrary: The explosion of knowledge represented by the Internet and abetted by all sorts of digital technologies makes us more productive and gives us the opportunity to become smarter, not dumber. Think of Wikipedia and its emergent spinoffs, like Wiktionary. Imperfect as they may be, the collective brainpower contained within these kinds of sites -- and the hunger for learning and accurate information they represent -- is something human history has never known before. (Even Encyclopedia Britannica will soon be accepting user contributions.) Or consider the Public Library of Science: By breaking the publishing industry's choke hold on the circulation of scientific information, this powerful online resource arms scientists and the masses alike with the same data, accelerating new discoveries and breakthroughs. Not exactly the kind of effect one would expect from a technology that's threatening to turn us into philistines."

OECD notes IPv4 depletion, nudges governments towards IPv6: Aug 18, 10:48am 1 review internet, ipv6
http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080515-oecd-notes-ipv4-depletion-nudge...; FTA - "In preparation for the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) ministerial meeting titled "The Future of the Internet Economy" in Seoul next month, the OECD released a report analyzing the rapid depletion of IPv4 addresses. The report cites the commonly held wisdom that addresses for the currently used version of the Internet Protocol (IP) will run out at some time in 2011. With that in mind, the authors recognize that, if we have to choose among wider use of NAT, allowing for address trading, and adopting IPv6, the latter is the only option that works in the long run.

Were running out of IPv4 addresses. Time for IPv6. Really.: Aug 18, 10:43am 5 reviews internet, ipv6, computer-networking
http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080817-were-running-out-of-ipv4-addres...; FTA - "A little over a year ago, I wrote an article about the IPv4 address consumption with the subtitle IPv4 Address Space: 2.46 Billion Down, 1.25 Billion to Go. A week ago, we reached the magic number of 2.7 billion IPv4 addresses used. With 3.7 billion possible addresses,� this means we now have less than a billion unused IPv4 addresses left. There are 39 blocks of 16.78 million addresses in the IANA global pool and another 339 million addresses that have been given out by IANA to the five Regional Internet Registries, but not yet delegated to ISPs or end-users.
