Does your ISP’s DNS stink? Try OpenDNS
So, the other day, I go to hit up my favorite search engine’s website, Google, and I’m greeting with the following ridiculous message:
Gee, thanks, Earthlink! Now I can find all those Used Cars and Airline Tickets that I was looking for! Actually, this is really hard to believe–Not only are Earthlink’s Domain Name Servers so crummy that they can’t resolve www.google.com, but they have to make some extra money from advertising on that page, too?
There have been several occasions where I thought I had lost my internet connectivity, only to find out that Earthlink’s DNS servers were down. Now I use OpenDNS, and have the added benefits of automatic typo-correction, anti-phishing, not to mention the speedy, reliable DNS service I would have expected from my ISP.
