<A class=contentpagetitle href="/index.php/Internet/Innovation/google-lance-son-propre-service-dns.html" $included="null">Google lance son propre service DNS</A><BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Affirmant œuvrer pour un Internet plus rapide et plus sûr, Google a lancé hier Google Public DNS, son propre service de résolution des noms de domaine. Le système est encore en phase expérimentale mais ouvert au public.<BR>
<DIV style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><BR></DIV>
<DIV style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">Engagé dans sa stratégie pour « rendre le web plus rapide », Google joint le geste à la parole en mettant en place un service de gestion des requêtes DNS (Domain Name, System) baptisé Google Public DNS. Le DNS est une sorte d'interface qui se charge de convertir les URL en adresses IP.</DIV>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">En général, ce système est géré par les fournisseurs d'accès Internet et certaines compagnies spécialisées. Partant du constat qu'il s'agit de l'un des rouages essentiels de la Toile, Google a voulu créer un DNS « <EM>plus rapide, plus sûr et plus fiable </EM>». Google Public DNS est encore au stade expérimental mais ouvert au grand public. Il faut pour cela modifier les paramètres réseau en suivant les instructions fournies sur cette <A href="http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using.html" $included="null"><FONT color=#0269b3>page</FONT></A>.</P>
<DIV style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"></DIV>
<P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify">« Dès que les gens commenceront à utiliser Google Public DNS, nous partageront les informations avec la communauté Internet et les fournisseurs de DNS afin d'améliorer la navigation Internet pour le plus grand nombre » conclut Google.</P>

BY EVGENY MOROZOV | DECEMBER<BR>> 2009<http://www.foreignpolicy.com/issues/176/contents/><BR>> <BR>> The world’s next great thinkers may well be just as brilliant as the ones<BR>> on this list<http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2009/11/30/the_fp_top_100_global_thinkers>,<BR>> but they’re likely to come to our notice in very different ways. Take<BR>> William Kamkwamba, a 22-year-old from Malawi who already exemplifies a new<BR>> generation of global leaders. A few years ago, he came upon an illustration<BR>> of a windmill in an old textbook in a language (English) he barely<BR>> understood and built one for his family so their house could have<BR>> electricity. Soon he was thinking of ways to mass-produce his invention for<BR>> distribution as ready-made kits.<BR>> <BR>> Twenty years ago, Kamkwamba’s story might have stayed local. But instead he<BR>> had the fortune of colliding with today’s Web-enabled global structure of<BR>> intellectual intermediaries. In 2006, an innovation-focused blog called<BR>> Hacktivate stumbled upon a write-up about Kamkwamba’s windmill in a Malawian<BR>> newspaper. It took only a few months for a network of global thinkers and<BR>> entrepreneurs calledTED <http://www.ted.com/> (full disclosure: I am a TED<BR>> fellow) to pick up the story. In 2007, Kamkwamba spoke at a TED conference<BR>> in Tanzania<http://www.ted.com/talks/william_kamkwamba_on_building_a_windmill.html>,<BR>> where he mingled with Bono and Jane Goodall, and in 2009 he cowrote a<BR>> best-selling book about his experience called *The Boy Who Harnessed the<BR>> Wind<http://www.amazon.com/Boy-Who-Harnessed-Wind-Electricity/dp/0061730327/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1259519131&sr=8-1><BR>> *.<BR>> <BR>> Will Kamkwamba be the next Sergey Brin? We don’t know yet. But his story<BR>> suggests just how dramatically the Internet era has transformed the very<BR>> process of becoming a global thinker -- that is, the process of learning to<BR>> get smart and heard at the same time -- and how much those changes are for<BR>> the better.<BR>> <BR>> In the old, pre-Internet model, aspiring thought leaders and idea<BR>> entrepreneurs had to establish residence either in one of the big cultural<BR>> metropolises or, failing that, a college town with a decent library. Now,<BR>> however, the very prospect of living in an “intellectual metropolis” has<BR>> become nearly obsolete. As Harper’s Bill Wasik pointed out recently, “[The<BR>> Internet is] a place that courses with all the raw ambition and creative<BR>> energy that the hard times seem to have drained from New York.” As long as<BR>> you pay your Internet bill, you might as well live in Skjolden, Norway, or<BR>> in a hut next to Walden Pond.<BR>> <BR>> The Internet is also democratizing education, making overspecialized and<BR>> prohibitively expensive graduate schools ever harder to justify. With the<BR>> Kindle, printable e-books, and now potentially Google’s scanned world<BR>> library, the price of books is rapidly approaching zero. Just as the<BR>> invention of the printing press allowed books to be mass-produced for the<BR>> first time, making them readily available for the middle class, the new<BR>> economics of the Web make books freely available to anyone with access to a<BR>> computer. And English, the lingua franca of today’s intellectual world, is<BR>> easier and cheaper than ever to learn, with millions of potential tutors<BR>> just a Skype call away.<BR>> <BR>> Many leading American universities are also publishing content from their<BR>> best professors online. Now anyone can watch historian Donald Kagan’s<BR>> lectures about ancient Greece on Yale University’s Web<BR>> site<http://www.yale.edu/> or<BR>> match wits with Paul Krugman’s old economics exams at mit.edu. Harvard<BR>> University philosopher Michael Sandel is releasing online video lectures of<BR>> his oversubscribed course on justice, supplementing them with online<BR>> discussion guides. A cursory look at peer-to-peer networks like Demonoid or<BR>> even the infamous Pirate Bay <http://thepiratebay.org/> -- most commonly<BR>> used for file-sharing -- reveals that much of the content swapped on them is<BR>> educational, from 1970s BBC documentaries to the eclectic courses produced<BR>> by the Teaching Company. Judging by the comments on the file-sharing sites,<BR>> many of their customers are in the developing world.<BR>> <BR>> The world’s next crop of thought leaders will also have superior tools of<BR>> transmission at their fingertips. Getting your piece on the op-ed page of<BR>> the *New York Times <http://www.nytimes.com/>* or an essay into the *New<BR>> York Review of Books <http://www.nybooks.com/>* is no longer the only way to<BR>> credential yourself as a serious thinker. Starting your own blog,<BR>> contributing to a site like the *Huffington<BR>> Post*<http://www.huffingtonpost.com/> or<BR>> the *Daily Beast* <http://www.thedailybeast.com/>, writing a Web column for<BR>> a newspaper, or penning an occasional guest post somewhere online can help<BR>> to get your name out there much more quickly and, perhaps, even more<BR>> effectively.<BR>> <BR>> And once you’re out there -- even if, like William Kamkwamba, you don’t have<BR>> access to the Internet yourself -- the Internet has sprouted a number of<BR>> influential intermediaries, aggregators, and bloggers who can take you the<BR>> next step. TED -- and its growing collection of video talks, distributed to<BR>> legions of iTunes fans around the world—is just one example. Another is<BR>> TED’s competitor PopTech <http://www.poptech.org/> and its Social Innovation<BR>> Fellows program.<BR>> <BR>> This revolution in access to knowledge means that in 10 to 15 years, the<BR>> global landscape of ideas will look completely different. It will no longer<BR>> be centralized in the West because schooling in everything from the classics<BR>> to windmill construction to modern art will be available to people in any<BR>> country without leaving home. The ability to work from anywhere also makes<BR>> the life of the mind a good deal cheaper. The new generation of public<BR>> intellectuals, though still cosmopolitan in outlook, will be much more<BR>> firmly embedded in their own locales, without the inferiority complex of old<BR>> about their Western peers; in other words, expect more Pankaj Mishra than<BR>> V.S. Naipaul.<BR>> <BR>> Their debates will also be entirely different. A decade from now, instead of<BR>> factions of Western (or at least Western-trained) thinkers arguing it out on<BR>> the op-ed pages of the *Financial Times* or the lounges of Davos, we may<BR>> well see this new generation of intellectuals from the developing world,<BR>> home-educated but globally minded, speaking publicly and forcefully from<BR>> blogs, columns, and their own intellectual reviews. The debate on climate<BR>> change would no longer be dominated by a Danish economist fighting a former<BR>> U.S. vice president, but instead might feature a Chinese environmental<BR>> blogger and a promising Indian scientist.<BR>> <BR>> The Internet may not turn us into a global village, but a global<BR>> intellectual salon it already is.<BR>> Save over 50% when you *subscribe* to<BR>> FP.<https://www.kable.com/pub/frnp/fpSubscriptionOffer.asp?src=NIAL1P><BR>> <BR>> Flickr user Erik (HASH) Hersman under a Creative Commons license<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Evgeny Morozov is Yahoo! fellow at Georgetown University.<BR>> -------------- next part --------------<BR>> An HTML attachment was scrubbed...<BR>> URL: https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/africann/attachments/20091203/5590657b/attachment.htm<BR>> <BR>> ------------------------------<BR>> <BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> AfrICANN mailing list<BR>> AfrICANN@afrinic.net<BR>> https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo.cgi/africann<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> End of AfrICANN Digest, Vol 34, Issue 8<BR>> ***************************************<BR> <br /><hr />Achetez un nouveau PC et bénéficiez de Windows 7 dès sa sortie ! <a href='http://www.portable-windows.com/' target='_new'>En savoir plus</a></body>
