[AusNOG] SMH: "No room at the internet"

[Skeeve Stevens]

It was a crap article... but exactly what we need.

We need awareness of what is going to happen... even basic awareness of the term 'ipv6'.

This article will now make thousands of people aware of the concept.

But, I do believe the article was a bit light in fact and information in some areas.

Any publicity for IPv6 is good.

What a piece of rubbish journalism, I hope SMH people don't trawl around here, this isn't a personal attack to any SMH journo's but seriously how does that stuff get published?!?

</Rant>

Though complements to Geoff :)

Also what do you reckon the go will be with Iphone IPv6 support?



Cheers!

"Could everyone please stop launching blogs and upgrading smartphones and buying airconditioners that are operated across the web? The internet is nearly full."

"In approximately 500 days, planet Earth is expected to run out of the unique numbers that identify the world's networked devices. The numbers are known as internet protocol addresses but if that sounds like geek, don't fret. They are probably more familiar than you realise."


All up, it's enough to make you cringe (starting with the lack of a capital I in the subject, it goes downhill from there), but there are some good quotes from Geoff Huston...

  Scott.
