    Okay, what is up with websites being tagged wrongly?

    Sports websites being put into the 'weapons' catagory, and sites like Ebuddy being called 'chat'....when they're instant messaging.

    Might want to do a bit of a better job to make sure the domains are tagged correctly.

    Agreed. Some categories seems to have a large number of miscategorized sites, for example "weapons" and "drugs".

    This has been discussed at length here: http://forums.opendns.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=3303

    And more recently in the MyWot thread where domains such as whitehouse.gov has had tags like adware, nudity and social networking added to it. Although they haven't yet been decided on as it's votes that matter, it's still incredible that some people are putting forward such tags.

    Well, whitehouse.com is a porn site, IIRC. I used it on another network to make sure the adult content was blocked correctly.

    I think us users are going to make a huge difference in how things get tagged. Everyone just make damn sure the tag is correct.
