DNS Shift Coming — Blog May Be Briefly Inaccessible

Posted on June 3, 2013 by Jay F Guin

I’m about to redirect the DNS pointers so that going to OneInJesus.info will take you to the new cloud proxy server. (Not sure that means, but sounds so cool to say it!)

    Ah, the ol’ “use a trusted DNS that filters the bad guys” trick…

    For a local computer, you can use something like OpenDNS to help filter out malware – both the computer and human kinds. 😉 You can even configure your home routers to point to OpenDNS so every computer that gets on your home network will point to it.

    Ahh, “doohickey”! That I understand.
