    Integrating the .Information Web 3 TLD


    Information.Direct is being run by Web3Gateways as part of an IBM Partner Programme

    Information.Direct will feature Web 3 Twins from Web 2 City and Other sites as laid out below

  • (City).Information.Direct (Web 2)
  • (City).Information (Web 3 Twin)

    The Information.Direct Web 3 Twin will provide IPFS resources as detailed below

    The Interplanetary File System (IPFS) is a protocol and peer-to-peer (P2P) distributed network for storing and sharing data; the nodes within the IPFS network contribute to a distributed file system.

    IPFS is a key component in enabling a decentralized, distributed version of the web as compared to today’s centralized web model. There are very clear benefits and advantages of using IPFS, and many companies have started to use it.

    One shortcoming of IPFS’s content-based addressing is that hashes are difficult to remember. To help alleviate this shortcoming, customers, resources are provided to map IPFS content to a domain name

    • Web 3 and Web 3 Applications

    The Internet has undergone massive changes in the last few years which has led to the emergence of Web 3. Web, the Internet of value,

    Features of Web 3 include distributed ledgers, NFTs, and cross-platform metaverses. However, there are barriers to entry to accessing and using Web 3. Web 3 Gateways break down those barriers to entry from branded points, and help provide access to Web3 services.

    Web 3 is a paradigm which is changing the Internet. Web 3 Gateways will help how Web3 will be enabled and accessed for end users.

    Web 3 Gateways let you use Web 3 applications in your browser without having to install plugins or run nodes, and continue using HTTP, while enjoying the benefits of IPFS.

    Creating a Web 3 site

    Web 3 applications, also known as decentralized applications or DApps, represent the next evolution of internet applications. These applications operate on decentralized networks, a departure from the centralized models dominating Web 2. Creating a decentralized web 3 site is relatively simple given some basic code. First, you'll need to design an HTML webpage. This is the basic coding language most webpages use. Next, you'll have to upload it as an HTML file to an IPFS network.

    Once the HTML file has finished uploading to IPFS, then you can take the content identifier (CID) hash and upload it to the content records of your domain. The domain name will then resolve to your webpage.

    Features of Web 3 Domains
    Web 3 Domains are domains registered on a blockchain. They can be used just like traditional domains. However, what sets Web 3 domains apart is their distinct value. Each domain is unique and cannot be replicated, making them a scarce and valuable asset in the digital world.

    One of the more frustrating aspects of crypto transactions is the reliance on lengthy wallet addresses, which are easy to mistype. Web3 domains solve this problem by allowing users to replace complex addresses with a simple, human readable name, making transactions faster and reducing the risk of costly errors.

    Web3 domains are not only decentralized but also designed to be more resilient to phishing attacks, thereby enhancing security
