IPv6 test day

On 08 June 2011 the Internet Society (ISOC) has choosen this day as the IPv6 test day to test the ability of IPv6. The test as some of the website participated reported went very well though there were some slowdawn at some point (such as web page take too long as usual to open). Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Akamai, Cisco, and W3C were some of the website participated in this test. I have heard that before the end of this year(2011) IPv4 migh just run out of addressing space. IPv6 is currently running parallel to IPv4 and if this test show a positive result to all sebsites tested  then we should put our hopes to IPv6.
