IPv6 : The Next Generation Internet Protocol (IP)

IPv6 is the next generation Internet Protocol (IP) address standard that will supplement and eventually replace IPv4, the protocol most Internet services use today.

An IP address is basically a postal address for each and every Internet-connected device. Without one, websites would not know where to send the information each time you perform a search or try to access a website. However, the world officially ran out of the 4.3 billion available IPv4 addresses in February 2011 .

Yet, hundreds of millions of people are still to come online, many of whom will do so in the next few years. IPv6 is what will allow them to do so, providing enough addresses ( 2¹²⁸  to be exact) for everyone and all of their various devices.

A lack of Internet addresses would have caused many problems; your favourite web programmes would slow down, computers would find it more difficult to communicate with one another, and your privacy could be compromised because it will be hard to tell the difference between you and another computer user down the street.

To allow the Internet to continue to grow and spread across the world, implementing IPv6 is necessary.

WhatsApp May be bigger than Twitter

According to industry estimates, WhatsApp has become bigger than Twitter in terms of monthly active users. The Wall Street Journal says that WhatsApp has more than 250 million monthly active users whereas Twitter has around 200 million monthly active users in December 2013. It is fast approaching the popular video-chat service Skype which has around 280 million monthly active users.

The figure is impressive for a company that launched its app just four years ago and that spends no money marketing itself. It makes WhatsApp one of the largest messaging platforms.

WhatsApp’s growth is of concern to many telecom carriers that make huge profits billing for text messages.
