# OpenDNS

Switched to [OpenDNS](http://www.opendns.com/) today. Really [easy](http://www.opendns.com/start/).  
It should be faster (well, that is if you're on mainland USA – I'm not), with a bigger cache.  
It's smart too, if you do a typo like www.halans.om, it will automatically redirect to the correct .com address.  
If you made some other typo, you'll get a list of possibilities (this is where the advertising kicks in though, they gotta make money one way or the other)  
And it adds anti-phishing, by blocking any (known) phishing URLs ([PhishTank](http://www.phishtank.com/)).  
Let's see how it copes with [growth,](http://system.opendns.com/) from 243,470 requests on June 30, to 52,221,805 request yesterday.
