I keep a list of good DNS servers but I haven't updated them for a while

finding out that the list is full of name servers that are weak, slow or
dead. Do you all have name servers in the area that you like to use?
How about sharing?
Thanks,

I set up my own DNS server and have it use the ISP's DNS servers only as
forwarders. All my other machines only know about my DNS server. If
they do know about the ISP's servers, they are second or third in the
/etc/resolve.conf. This setup works very well as it doesn't really
matter if the ISP's DNS servers are working - mine just continues to
look up the DNS stuff on it's own.
