Has anyone seen this kind of crap in your e-mail recently, or anytime? What a scam!!! Does anyone ever respond to this garbage. If I could make $70 per domain sold, I might think this was a good Idea and then turn around and buy it from GoDaddy. Problem is, EVERYONE should be buying their domains directly from GoDaddy. Of course, there are those of us who will find a great brand name and buy 5 years worth of every similar domain they can think of, but you still aren’t paying $295. This kind of scam needs to end. Make sure to forward it to:

These are the symptoms I could find so far, but I cannot isolate the DateTime property that is causing the Exception.More...

For anyone who recently noticed issues with Twitter on several fronts, you’ll want to read this. I’m not sure if it’s made the rounds on TV news yet but it answered some questions and caused some concern. It’s always blissful until someone slams the door in your face, or cut’s you off on the road, flips you off, etc. No idea why this would happen, but it did. Now we all need to BOTH find ways of keeping these things from happening, within reason, and to prosecute and slam the door on those idiots who do this for fun, revenge, or terrorism.
