friday the day the internet runs out of ip addresses


the internet is gonna run out of numerical ip addresses by friday, but fortunately the internet will not stop running.  a new system called ipv6 will replace version 4.

each device connected to the internet is given an assigned  number called internet protocol address. with the millions of smartphones capable of going online, the numbers are running out.

the authority that governs such addresses will distribute the last batches Thursday.

good thing there's such a thing as ipv6 so there's really no need to worry.
