			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you tried to hit the blog last night you might have noticed that it wasn&#8217;t resolving.  Things have been nice and stable here since I <a href="http://www.aribrownest.com/minutia/blog-mig/">switched hosting providers</a> way back when.  This time I kinda knew this was going to happen.  I&#8217;ve been using <a href="http://www.godaddy.com">Godaddy</a> as my domain registrar for as long as I can remember.  They were the upstart kid when register.com was the king of the realm and their service has been fine, but their CEO&#8230; is despicable.</p>
<p>A while back I meant to switch when it came out he was a big fan of <a href="http://consumerist.com/2011/04/revolt-over-godaddy-ceos-elephant-kill-video-makes-20433-flee-rival-claims.html">elephant hunting</a>.  Needless to say, that&#8217;s not my thing, but I sort of let myself forget about it because I knew it was going to be  hassle.</p>
<p>What finally pushed me over the edge is his self-defeating and frankly confusing <a href="http://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/nmnie/godaddy_supports_sopa_im_transferring_51_domains/">support for SOPA</a> &#8211; the bill that would kill the internet.  I&#8217;m not sure how much business they&#8217;re going to lose over this, but it&#8217;s more than none &#8211; at very least, it&#8217;s mine.  If Reddit is to be believed, it&#8217;s probably much more.  So in any case, I&#8217;m now using the services of the lovely people at name.com and if you have a domain that Godaddy still hosts, you can do the right thing and find another provider too.  Name.com is even <a href="http://blog.name.com/2011/12/getting-on-our-sopa-box-and-saving-you-money/">running a promotion</a> and has info on what it takes to make the switch.</p>
