Here's an idea that would make Shortcuts easier to use for end users on larger networks. Currently if you don't have an account your Shortcuts are cookie-based. If you clear your cookies they go away. There's also no place to manage Shortcuts - right now you can click a link from the OpenDNS Guide and see your Shortcuts but you can't take any action there. People who want to add/remove/change their Shortcuts have to create an OpenDNS account, which shows them DNS traffic stats, networks and all sorts of things that are over their head - and all they wanted to do was manage Shortcuts.

My idea is a simplified version of an OpenDNS account interface specifically for managing Shortcuts. This pared down account would enable your users to create Shortcuts and manage them in a central location, without showing them any DNS or network info. They would create the account on OpenDNS Guide.

The network admin could still create network-wide Shortcuts that trump the end-users' personal Shortcuts.
