You can achieve the above DNS trickery using various load balancers that other people in this thread have already mentioned. You can also install your own geomaps in your own nameservers and handle it yourself, or you can buy managed DNS service from various people that can do this kind of thing.
Just curious, how does DNS load balancing work if people are using 8.8.8.8/208.67.222.222 or basically any public resolvers that cache and have a significant (relatively speaking) user-base? Is the actual percent of requests so small that it doesn't matter? -- James
