OpenDNS CEO David Ulevitch. On. The. Radio.

by Allison Rhodes on May 10th, 2007

He’d be mad if he knew I was actually encouraging people to listen to his live, one-hour interview tonight. Which is why I’m speed blogging while he’s stepped out of the office to run an errand.

I’ve heard David speak before and let me tell you - he’s great. Tonight’s interview by Craig Crossman of Computer America should be more of the same. Expect all of your DNS questions to be answered tonight at 7 p.m. Pacific - that’s an hour and fifteen minutes from now. I think you can even call in and ask them yourself.

Lots of radio stations play Craig’s show live, and if your local station doesn’t you can listen on the Interwebs.

If you snooze, you don’t lose. If you’re reading this after the broadcast, download the podcast here.

Put an OpenDNS shortcut on your site

by Allison Rhodes on May 8th, 2007

OpenDNS users are great. They’re smart, funny, good-looking and kind. Did I mention they’re really smart?

Especially these four guys, who put an OpenDNS shortcut link on their site.

An OpenDNS shortcut link makes it easy for the hundreds of thousands of OpenDNS users to get back to your site, time and time again. Who doesn’t want that? All you do is put a link on your site that lets people create a shortcut straight to you. From that point forward, they can type something short and easy to remember into their address bar and be taken straight to your site. Simple instructions are here.

If you like being categorized with smart, funny, good-looking, kind people, you should put a shortcut link on your site, too.

Find your stats, all in one place

by Aaron Best on May 2nd, 2007

We made a couple small changes to improve the way you view stats in your OpenDNS account.

1. The default stats view now shows all stats on a single page.
2. On the top of that page, you’ll see a link to a printer-friendly version.

More stats coming this summer

These are minor enhancements, but it gives me an opportunity to mention a larger project underway which will give you more granular statistics, more detailed charts, and more control over your data.

Ever wonder how many typos are corrected per day on your network? What kinds of DNS traffic you send to the Internet? The most-used shortcuts? You’ll be able to answer those questions very soon.

What other stats would you like to see? Post your ideas here.
