    As you know, OpenDNS has launched a community based domain classification system. To help with getting the most popular web destinations classified, a website has been setup that provides these domains with a link to vote at OpenDNS. The site is available here:

    This web site is provided by KMBC to help in classifying the most popular web destinations. It is not affiliated with or sponsored by OpenDNS. (Of course, I'm certainly open to that :)

    If you are reading this, please go to the site and vote. It will take just a few minutes of your time. Your help is needed and will be appreciated. OpenDNS is your community too. Thanks a bunch.

    edit: added link here also > http://opendns.kmbcsolutions.com/

    C'mon folks. Pitch in please. Thanks.

    edit: We really need your help in classifying the top domains. If you don't want to classify sites (you are too busy or something), at least give a little help... by doing the top ones when you have some free time. Thanks again.

    lol, I do think categorizing websites that a lot of people frequently visit is a good idea

    Here are a few update stats - of the top 100 most frequently visited web sites, 71 of them have been approved in their categories. A few of them were categorized prior to this top 25 list, but there is no doubt the list is helping us get popular websites classified! Keep up the good work.

    All it does is query, based on your username

    It doesnt require your password.

    Just to calm people's nerves - you do not have to put in your username. Putting in your username simply allows the page to show if you have voted on the domain(s) or not. No user submitted information is stored or retained in any way. The username option is simply a convenience.

    By the way, it checks to see if that username has voted from the given page(s) at OpenDNS.com. All usernames of voters are listed for any domain voted on. The usernames are very public at OpenDNS. So, definitely, don't give out your password!
