I’m always finding great promo codes for Godaddy. I thought my readers might enjoy these coupons as well.

The .TV forum infamous for excluding any voice with an objective opinion is now out of business. It looks like the cheerleading squad has finally pulled the plug on the .TV Cheerfest™. Goodbye Development.TV and don’t let the virtual door hit you in your virtual ass on the way out.

I’ve been using Godaddy’s auction platform (formally known at TDNAM) since it started a couple of years ago.  The thing that amazes me is the consistent sluggishness of the website. My browser often times out when browsing the domain listings. WTF? Not only is TDNAM website slow, everything Godaddy publishes is slow.

Come on Godaddy hire a decent IT guy who can get your servers running instead of jogging/walking.

The website of the domain registrar Dynadot appears to be down. If anyone has additional information please post in comment section. Thank you.
