World IPv6 Day is happening now! Check your IPv6 connectivity!


World IPv6 Day, a 24-hour test of IPv6, began on Wednesday, June 8, at midnight UTC (Tuesday, June 7, at 8:00 PM Eastern/5:00 PM Pacific).

     From the Internet Society at http://www.worldipv6day.org/ : 
"On 8 June, 2011, Google, Facebook, Yahoo!, Akamai and Limelight Networks will be amongst some of the major organisations that will offer their content over IPv6 for a 24-hour “test flight”. The goal of the Test Flight Day is to motivate organizations across the industry – Internet service providers, hardware makers, operating system vendors and web companies – to prepare their services for IPv6 to ensure a successful transition as IPv4 addresses run out.
Please join us for this test drive and help accelerate the momentum of IPv6 deployment."
You can test your own IPv6 connectivity at http://test-ipv6.com/
