Google Launches Public DNS

http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/

I've been using OpenDNS for the past 6-8 months - works great, although I have not had good success in blocking dodgy sites. And 2 days ago OpenDNS would not resolved www.youtube.com for around 5 minutes.

So, should I be considering trying out Google's public DNS service (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4)?
