History has shown that public polls are notorious for ehmacers failure to respond. ;)

I don't even bother using what I chose, only if something's wrong with my own DNS. :)

Maybe try using the older "Namebench" app that still seems to work to establish the best recommended and fastest DNS server options, but it can take a bit if fiddling and renaming to get things working optimally and may need to be started and tried later with a new "scan".

voted for open dns
as it is easier to manage several different IP locations at once and I feel I can sleep better at night knowing google isn't knowing what I am preventing and what my IPs are..

OPENdns is very easy to use and has great GUI for their portal.

only advantage google has it is easy to remember .

Thanks to the OP. This is a very interesting question.

I'm considering unblock.US or something like it, so it's good to know that others out that are using it and it works.

I just use my ISP's - Rogers - because in Namebench tests, it came out faster than OpenDNS or Google, both of which I have used at times.

As for Unblock Us - smarter faster VPN (http://unblock-us.com/) (note hyphen, not period!) it's not free after the first month. $4.99 US/month - so you'd definitely want to be sure that you were actually going to be using Netflix or other US-based services. Of course, Netflix in the US is far, far superior to the really lame Canadian version. :rolleyes:
