Hi Manuel,
Great, a nice idea. But maybe the problem is there are just a lot of similar websites / directories out in the net. I think its cool to have one in / for Switzerland. As soon I'm using ipv6 in our network ill add some websites to the directory.
can you write a firefox plugin which shows a link for each ipv4 website if its also available over ipv6? that would be very nice :) this way users can see that it is a good idea to get ipv6 connectivity.
"IPv6 enabled web sites are sixy! ;)" >> cool ^^
greets Marco

Hello,
now that IPv6 is slowly gaining hype factor again, I noticed that there are few places to find content that is accessible via IPv6. In an attempt to change that, I launched http://sixy.ch, a directory of IPv6 enabled web sites.
It's currently manually compiled (a random selection of sites is in the database now), but anyone can add new sites (please feel free - IPv6 capability is checked automatically etc.). I've experimented with a crawler, but that tends to generate a lot of junk (empty/test/mirror sites, no decent description/tags etc.).
So the next time you find yourself at a geeky event where they turn off IPv4 access for a while (maybe we should do that at SwiNOG 17, just to be hip), you know where to start.
Ideas for future improvement:
- availability statistics
- popularity rankings (# of hits)
- live traceroute, better whois etc.
IPv6 enabled web sites are sixy! ;)
Cheers,
