Popular Websites Agree to Participate in ‘World IPv6 Day’

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 drive”. The goal of the Test Drive 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.
