Chris Pirillo gave the Gift of Safe to his Dad. Who will you give it to?

Chris Pirillo

Web celeb Chris Pirillo, of Lockergnome fame, made a hilarious video of a phone conversation with his Dad. Chances are, the context rings familiar for you: he’s made a tweak to his Dad’s router — set up OpenDNS — and is trying to explain it. (”No, Dad. It has nothing to do with Microsoft Word. I have no idea why Microsoft Word is acting up…”)

Huge thanks to Chris for helping us spread the word about the Gift of Safe, a.k.a. OpenDNS. This holiday season we’re asking our fantastic users to give their friends and family the Gift of Safe by telling them about OpenDNS. We’ve made it super easy with an e-mail form and simplified instructions.

So enjoy the video, and give the Gift of Safe. Who will you give it to?

Happy Holidays everyone!

    Nice campaign but why there isn’t a Linux option in http://opendns.com/gos ?

    We want Opensource software for OpenDNS ^_^

    There are Linux, Unix, and even Nintendo Wii instructions available at
    http://www.opendns.com/start/

    The Gift of Safe recipients weren’t expected to need instructions on BIND or Windows Server 2003 or SUSE Linux, but all are available. ;-)
