Check out DynECT from http://www.dyn.com

Twitter, Mozilla and lots of other big names use them. I remember watching a webcast where Mozilla said they used Dyn's anycast failover service, with TTLs on their domains set to 5 seconds.

I've been using their DynECT entry level package ($30/month) for a couple of years and it's great.
