Use Google's DNS Servers

Here’s a quick tip that I found while reading Macworld magazine as I was snowed in during the blizzard of 2010.

Google, like Open DNS, allows you to use their DNS instead of your ISP’s. The only reason you would want to do this is for speed.

To use Google’s DNS, use the following: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.

I'm John Oliver. I'm a 30 something geek living in Dover, Delaware. I enjoy technology, gadgets, new media (facebook, twitter, tumblr), design, and all of those do it yourself reality shows on HGTV.

I use this blog as an outlet to voice my opinion on various topics. Using tumblr's awesome tools, I enjoy sharing links back to good articles (I call them good reads) along with a small narrative with my take. Most will be technology focused but I will sprinkle in a bit about me and other current events type stuff.

Enjoy!
