Somebody create a server whose IP I can put into my d/blubb value so that the server redirects me to blubb.com ("blubb.com" needs to be placed in the value).
(So far it seems it is not possible to redirect to an existing domain that does have neighbor domains on the same ip.)
Browser plugins could take a shortcut and go directly to blubb.com

This should allow redirects to HTTP/HTTPS services without server configuration, and also would allow browsers to see the .bit domain as the domain in use (if Convergence or something similar were used).

Link doesn't work for me. Is it this one:biolizard89 wrote:viewtopic.php?p=6861&sid=4e5a780dc03d9bc5ab44c317e780be38#p6861

EDIT: ok, biolizard89's link does indeed work. Thanks to virtual_master who pointed out it is a .bit link. Even the combination of .bit and https works if using khal's 178.32.31.41 DNS server.

Yes. It is the same link but with .bit and https:cassini wrote:Link doesn't work for me. Is it this one:biolizard89 wrote:viewtopic.php?p=6861&sid=4e5a780dc03d9bc5ab44c317e780be38#p6861

The above link appears by clicking that link and doesnt work.
But if you change bit with org or https with http then works, just the combination https with .bit doesn't work.
My be something must be configured to be possible the viewing. This must be a recent development.
------------
But there is another problem also what I remarked now.
If am logged in on the Namecoin forum with .org on the same forum with .bit I am not logged in. (tabs refreshed)

Re: [Idea] .bit redirection service
Now I am logged out on the http://dot-bit.org/forum and I am writing this from the http://dot-bit.bit/forum, where I am logged in.
In the above post it was inverse.
Interesting behavior.
You can log in each or in the same time also.
The first time I see something like this.
If they where 2 different forums with synchronized content.

Sounds great.biolizard89 wrote: I was thinking about something similar: add an "http" field, which compliant implementations should display as an HTML iframe, an HTTP redirect, or otherwise load the HTTP URL specified by the value of the "http" field. The value would be used as a "base" URL; i.e. I could specify this:
name: d/myforum
value: { "http" : "http://www.mysite.com/forum"}
Visiting http://www.myforum.bit/1234 would take me to http://www.mysite.com/forum/1234
This scheme might need modification to handle multiple resolvers (e.g. the implementation should be able to choose a generic TLD, .onion TLD, .i2p TLD, etc. based on user choice), but I think that's easy enough.
I think this would meet the main use case of your proposal, without using as much storage in the blockchain, and would also prevent idiots from shoving Javascript malware in the blockchain or whatever other bad things might happen from embedding arbitrary web pages in the blockchain.
Another benefit of this way of doing it is that (I think, haven't tested) proxy-based implementations like Convergence should be able to transparently translate the HTTP headers such that the URL bar still works as normal; i.e. the browser thinks it's actually visiting the correct .bit page even if you click links, but the server receives the headers requesting a .com page.
Not so much a fan of iFrames - but these would allow for a server side solution that lets you keep .bit domain.
Of course the solution with firefox plugin is much better. And +1 to TLS included.
About https://dot-bit.bit I did not even notice. It just works as it should, with a little closed lock next to the domain
