521: Are You The Tiny Domino?

Kenneth Finnegan entertained us with stories about accidentally contributing to the internet's ability to network.

Wondering how the internet works? All those terms about IPv4, IPv6, BGP, OSPF, CDN and other alphabet  soup? Check out the YouTube videos by NetworkChuck.

Kenneth writes about his adventures on his blog, The Life of Kenneth. Some of the posts related to this show are:

• Creating an Internet Exchange for Even More Fun and Less Profit

• Building an Anycast Secondary DNS Service 

• Building the Micro Mirror Free Software CDN 

We also mention FCIX aka fcix.net or the Fremont Cabal Internet Exchange

You can also find Kenneth at @kwf@social.afront.org where you will find more about half-dollars, nickels, and trains.

If you also secretly long to run a locomotive, take a look at the Run-A-Locomotive program at WPRM.

The title is related to the XKCD comic 2347: Dependency.
