* IPv6 Deployment Growth

Of the 39,570 networks in the world running BGP, the number 
running IPv6 has increased to 4,830, or 12.2%. This is an 
increase from 7.4% just one year ago or 9.5% six months back.

The global IPv6 routing table has passed 7000 IPv6 prefixes.

* Free Interactive Programming Tutorials

We've launched an interactive programming tutorial site with 
beginning courses in Perl, PHP, Ruby, Python, SQL, HTML, CSS, 
JavaScript, jQuery, and XML. It provides a type-along style 
course that allows you to write and run snippets of code online 
via your web browser.  Even if you already know how to code you 
may find a quick review amusing and entertaining.  When you get 
done with that you can also post your own code snippets or 
exercises to the code forums for other people to run.  The site 
is in beta and just launched, please let us know what you think.
