U mean Faster ??

yes, we can, as OpenDNS will have a Large cache compair with ISP DNS, therefore we can surf faster !!

And i use it... many other of this forum use it too !!

@freebird, its being managed well.. No problems so far (using since about a year). People say it can be target for a cache poisoning attack, but then, its monitored very well, and is user driven, so no issues so far. In other words, do try it out

Why dont you try this: http://www.opendns.com/start/unix.php
Or better still, add opendns servers to your router itself under the DNS section.
