How do you manage DNS?

InstantSpot News

This afternoon our DNS service for InstantSpot.com seems to have either died, retired, or took a nap.  (we use everydns.net)  This "inspired" us to quickly create a couple additional DNS service accounts for failover protection.  We have NEVER had any issue with everydns until today, so it made me wonder...

What does everybody else do in order to protect their sites from this loss of DNS?

ps...sorry to all of our fellow 'Spotters.  I hope DNS resolves ASAP!

Lots of secondary hosts... I use 4.

Another good reliable DNS host is DNS Made Easy, and they are cheap

DNS Made Easy is by far the best, with the most to offer for the price. We use them.

I use a service call DtDNS, whose been crazy-reliable for the past 8 years i've been using them. http://www.dtdns.com.. Also a coldfusion site ;) They allow you to actually edit your DNS entries on the fly, which is really useful if you ever have to change servers.

Update: We ended up using GoDaddy's DNS service. It's too bad about EveryDNS, I liked using that interface.
