DNS is used to resolve human-readable addresses (more correctly hostnames or fully qualified domain names) , such as www.yahoo.com to a machine-useable IP address.
(Sam C, you got it backwards. That's a reverse lookup. But 127.0.0.1 ALWAYS resolves to "localhost".)
(KUMAR, you don't know what you're talking about.)

DNS basically turns your IP address into alphabetical address like a domain name.
So if your IP address was 127.0.0.1 a DNS could turn it into mycomputer.ath.cx or mycomputer.com
www.dyndns.com is a very good FREE DNS server.
