    I wonder how many websites hardcoded remote ip addresses with VARCHAR(15) or unsigned integer?

      And I'm wondering how long before IPV8 is needed? When they start implanting phones in women' ears when they give them a drivers license it won't take long.

            Why? The site only has IPv4 access. No problems here :)

                Not to be the wet blanket, but I don't think the human race will ever need v8, unless it's going to feature different security or something like that. The number of addresses available are staggering. Like to the tune of 10^28 individual addresses per person on the planet today. I certainly don't want to lug around 10^28 smartphones.

                      Not even then. There are approximately 2*10^24 subatomic particles per kilogram; if we assume the average person weighs 100kg, that's still ~100 IP addresses per quark and electron. :laugh:

                            Would it really be all that big a deal to just change the size of the field. It wouldn't change the data any.

                              True enough. I'm assuming that IP address usage would remain fairly similar to IPv4. Now if folks start getting creative with the usage of IP addresses... Then all bets are off. For example, if a web site decides to use IP addresses as unique visitor identifiers. Theoretically, Google.com would need ~7 billion IP addresses. So would every other web site that wants to use this same scheme. Also, who says IP addresses should be restricted to servers/domains? Maybe a document repository decides to use a scheme of one IP = one document? DNS changes from Domain Name System to Document Name System. *That* would cause IP usage to balloon.

                                I was thinking more along the lines of an IP address for your car, house, etc.. The number could sky-rocket.

                                    Yeah, the same way they thought IPv4 was enough for a good amount of time, I bet they will be wrong again with IPv6. Specially when women start needing dedicated servers for each appliance, so they can cook, do the laundry, vacuum and pleasure the husband remotely.

                                      Once they get married they don't do any of those things so that will only be an issue for single women. :)

                                          I wonder how many websites hardcoded remote ip addresses with VARCHAR(15) or unsigned integer?
