    Looking for IPv6 capable websites

    Alright, it's time to ask here

    I've got IPv6 setup on my home network. Looks like everything works. Multicast routing, autoconfig, router advertisements, dhcp6, the whole 9 yards. Now I'm looking for websites that showcases the new and improved IP. Preferably sites that use IPv6 multicast to deliver content. Sites I can use to demo/test my IPv6 enabled network. The dancing tortoise on http://www.kame.net is kind of boring

    Hi SirDice,

    http://www.ipv6.org/v6-www.html
    IPv6 Accessible Sites

    Eg

    and for those who have no idea...like me ...what it is...

    http://ipv6gate.sixxs.net/
    SixXS :: SixXS IPv6 to IPv4 and IPv4 to IPv6 Website Gateway

    and this might help...there's quite a few sites in the comments...

    Unfortunately, those sites are mostly the same as their IPv4 counterparts So they're not really showing off the new capabilities. They do seem to load faster though, but perhaps that's just perception.

    I do also have the ShowIP extension installed on my FireFox. It shows the IP you're connected to. It seems a lot of sites are IPv6 capable as I see lots of IPv6 addresses with ShowIP.

    I'm dying to test my IPv6 multicast routing though But it looks like I will need to install VLC and stream some movie myself

    I've got ShowIP too...how do you tell my IP? I thought the IP on the bottom right was the page IP?

    Eg

    It indeed shows the IP of the page you're visiting.. Perhaps I wasn't too clear about that.. It does show the IPv6 address if I connect to an IPv6 capable website, so I know it works

    Can't tell what IP you have unless you've got a website running locally
