Vint Cerf: Evangelizing on Internet future
March 11th, 2008 | by Jose Miguel Cansado |Vint Cerf, one of the fathers of Internet and Chief Internet Evangelist at Google, delivered a keynote in San Francisco a few days ago. If you have never heard Mr. Cerf, do not miss this video.
In his keynote Vint Cerf covers a bit of Internet History and some of the evolutions coming:
- IPv6. Need to implement it quick as IPv4 addresses will run out around 2010
- Internationalized top level domain names, not only in Latin characters
- DNSSEC, to add security to the look-ups of domain names
- Progressive download rather than streaming, provided there is enough bandwidth
- Focus on Security
