OpenDNS - faster? smarter? 

ermm.. checking my email after training and a stress free change after that, found this article quite worth a word. Its a free DNS servers .

I was previuosly suffers from slow response time from surfing the internet while I was with my old ISP. Despite I had a 1.5Mbps connection, because the delays was from the domain naming resolution, its slow down the loading of the page by 1 to 2 seconds.

Looking through OpenDNS site, it suggests it makes dns resolution smarter by "guessing" what you are trying to get to, e.g. gogole.com -> google.com, yahoo.cmo -> yahoo.com. You get the idea.

I am sure it is definately smarter but I will still need to see if it is really faster then my current isps' name servers.



OpenDNS is a must-have free service (there's no software to install) that speeds up Web surfing, corrects domain typos on the fly, and protects you from phishing scams. All you do is change your DNS settings (instructions here) to the OpenDNS servers: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
