Only 10 Percent of Web Addresses (IPv4) Remain


TechSpot reports that only 10% of the IPv4 addresses remain. IPv4 is the numerical nomenclature used to identify all of those great websites you grew up with like: pets.com, yahoo.com, geocities.com, etc. New kid on the block IPv6 will give us – potentially – trillions of addresses to Facebook about into the future, but the [...]

The most recent Xbox 360 update, which I in fact just downloaded, is not the fancy Twitter, Last.fm update, but an update that provides support for the “new wireless N adapter slated to release later this year.” Whew. My prediction still holds.
