Google has launched its Public DNS a few days ago and claims its faster and more secure than any other DNS. Try it out for yourself and share your thoughts on this.
Google Public DNS IP addresses
The Google Public DNS IP addresses are as follows:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
You can use either number as your primary or secondary DNS server. You can specify both numbers, but do not specify one number as both primary and secondary.
