The latest would be a link like /ipns/yourcompany.com, and you'd have a TXT record pointing at your node's IPNS hash (or an IPFS content hash directly) and you update it by either updating what your node's IPNS hash points to, or by editing the DNS record to point to the latest IPFS content hash.

Each time the page is updated, the TXT record would need to be modified with the latest IPNS hash?

[jstanley]

No, if you put an IPNS hash in the TXT record you just update your IPFS node.

If you put an IPFS hash in the TXT record then you need to update that every time. I personally do this (domain name jes.xxx) because it means you don't need to leave your IPFS node running constantly in order for your IPNS name to be resolvable.

The record is:

    jes.xxx.		300	IN	TXT	"dnslink=Qme12vJPtMpeUwmG2NLG11Q47jy2unSonegNJxQb9QgYax"

And I have a small shell script to update it automatically.

Now I'm even more confused. I suppose I'll watch a talk on youtube or something.

So far we learned that the HTTP web is slow, impermanent and centralized.

This is why it can support billions of people daily in every corner on the planet and have services like https://archive.org/.

Time to move on I guess.

I wonder why do we need an http to IPFS gateway for that video he just uploaded though.
