THE HOST COMMAND


You want your browser to load the bookmarks you have with more speed ? Replace the www adresses with IP numbers . . .

How ? Simple as can be, type:

This will give: 66.180.174.35

Now put your bookmark to search for http://66.180.174.35


Here´s a few you can start with:
Slashdot: http://66.35.250.150
Freshmeat: http://66.35.250.168
LinuxHQ: http://198.182.196.72
Linux.org: http://198.182.196.56
The Linux Counter: http://158.38.152.227

NOTE: The server of Scot's Newsletter Forum does not allow direct lookups by IP , so for that bookmark you will have to use the good old fashioned way . . .


Update: The new host does give us an IP address for the forum: http://71.18.42.112
