Well, it seems like the place for me to start it is to get an IPv6 address:
Freenet6, is a client that allows you to connect to an IPv6 address by tunneling to the Freenet6 server using the TSP protocol from your IPv4 address.

How-To install the Freenet6 client on Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (Ubuntu 7.04) and connect to a site via IPv6:

1. Download the linux client from (This is only to get the nice documentation that comes with it, very well written): http://www.go6.net/4105/download.asp
2. Install the TSPC package: Open up the Synaptic Package Manager from the System : Adminstration, and search for TSPC, select it and hit apply. Or in the command line simply type: “sudo apt-get install tspc” without quotes.
3. Now in the command like type “sudo tspc -v” this will connect to Freenet6 using an anonymous account.
4. Check to see if it worked using ping6: “ping6 -nv www.ipv6.org” You should get ping replies from an IPv6 address, i.e.:
   • “PING www.ipv6.org(2001:6b0:1:ea:202:a5ff:fecd:13a6) 56 data bytes”
   • “64 bytes from 2001:6b0:1:ea:20…” ….”icmp_seq=1 ttl=44 time=176 ms”
5. Now, if you signed up for an account with go6 and don’t want to log in anonymously:
   • Open up /etc/tsp/tspc.conf with a text editor as root, i.e.: “sudo nano /etc/tsp/tspc.conf”
   • Change “userid=” to “userid=your_username”;”passwd=” to “passwd=your_passwd”; “server=anon.freenet6.net” to “server=broker.freenet6.net”. Make sure you are not changing the above in the comment fields;-) (The lines that start with #).

This is enough for me to start exploring, I will add information as I learn more, and I hope the above is correct–I am just starting to explore and learn about IPv6 myself.
