Nyancat Auto twitter VERY IMPORATANT!!

Why in the world would you keep tweeting the same ip address over and over. Why not just save the ip to your VNC/RDP client or in a text file... I'm lost.

This is off topic, pafoo, but I want to clairify this for you.

As stated earlier, there are (some would consider better) alternatives to logging IP changes, but the reason for wanting a system would be dynamic IP assignment. Some ISPs dynamically allocate IPs, This is very common with dial-up users and some internal organizations which act as ISPs {some colleges}. If you had a server on such a networked system, you would need to keep all references to the server current. Usually this is done by running a program of some sort which reports changes to another server - usually some dynamic dns service. Then the references (website, nameserver info etc) are set to point to the dns server which then points to (the current location of) your server.
