I think the idea is genius, but it's still a bit too technical for my abilities...



We are aware of this, and that's why we are developing easier solutions.

There will be an automatic configuration in foxyproxy (soon, i hope ).



If you want to browse domains, everything is now really easy (recommended : change your DNS or install Foxyproxy in firefox) :

http://dot-bit.org/How_To_Browse_Bit_Domains



But, an easy solution means you don't fully benefit from the full power of the p2p.

So, there is still some work on this side.



Would those solutions be acceptable, for you, to browse .bit domains without relying on an external service ?

- a preconfigured virtual box running on your computer + foxyproxy

- same thing, with an installer but without virtual box + foxyproxy



Then, we also need something to manage and configure domains (or else) in namecoin.

Using the command line is not the most easy way to configure domains, subdomains and ip addresses



To summarize : which part is blocking you and what would you like ? :p We are aware of this, and that's why we are developing easier solutions.There will be an automatic configuration in foxyproxy (soon, i hope).If you want to browse domains, everything is now really easy (recommended : change your DNS or install Foxyproxy in firefox) :But, an easy solution means you don't fully benefit from the full power of the p2p.So, there is still some work on this side.Would those solutions be acceptable, for you, to browse .bit domains without relying on an external service ?- a preconfigured virtual box running on your computer + foxyproxy- same thing, with an installer but without virtual box + foxyproxyThen, we also need something to manage and configure domains (or else) in namecoin.Using the command line is not the most easy way to configure domains, subdomains and ip addressesTo summarize : which part is blocking you and what would you like ? :p

Honestly? I don't even know how to answer your question...



Nothing is actually blocking me yet... I wouldn't know where to begin!



That's how 'untechnical' I am!



I get your point, when you say that easier stuff implies less possibilities, but eventually (even if it's in three or five years), I believe this will have to come down to icons and buttons...



That is if you guys want it to have a wide social/political impact, and I'm sure you do!



I accept the idea that before getting there, you first have to explore all the abstract aspects at it's core... It's just I'm not qualified to make pertinent critiques!



But I'll try the FireFox thingy tonight! Honestly? I don't even know how to answer your question...Nothing is actually blocking me yet...

As if the foxyproxy guy listened to you, he added the automatic configuration method (only visit a link :p) :

I think you are right on where we must go. This will need some brainstorming :p
