First, the poker. Full Tilt is running a Take 2 promotion over the next ten days where they'll give you either $5 or $25 (depending on how many days you play) if you earn a couple points playing two tables or Rush Poker. You have to opt in so check the FTP site for details. Free money it's a good thing.


Now. Off topic time.

I have a couple domains - including this one - that are registered with godaddy. I think it's three domains total. They're all timed to renew about the first of the year. I try very hard to avoid having anything auto-renew because auto-renew sucks so at some point I will need to sign in and fork over a few dollars.

The expiration notices and renewal reminders have already started. I think I've received five emails already this week.

If I don't sign in and renew - and if history is any guide I'll take care of it in mid-December when I have time and hopefully a few spare dollars - I'll continue to get notices and reminders. Several each week. I feel like I should set a line, but even at something at the higher end of reasonable like 50 reminders I'd still take the over.

What a waste of bandwidth. One weekly reminder would be MORE than ample. Even monthly until the last couple weeks prior to expiration would be great plenty. This constant contact stuff is kind of annoying. So I'm quick on the delete button. Hey godaddy this isn't making me more inclined to register future domains with you.
