Also--it's an advertisement. Can't we promote egalitarianism without trying to criminalize male sexuality? Nobody would have complained if it was a male model doing the exact same commercial.


You are very cute like a small child.


Who do you use? I'd like to switch.


I have very good experiences with both namecheap and gandi... Gandi is by far my favorite but they are a bit pricy...


Correct. I found if you have an A * record to an ip you control, and a plain X.TLD record it covers everything.

This policy is infuriating to say the least. I have sent them several emails about it and gotten various, "we don't care," responses. It's very hard for me to describe how enraged I was when I found out, even after finding a solution on my own.

If I could find a registrar that didn't treat me like crap I would switch instantly.

Namecheap has been excellent for the domains I've bought through it. I haven't yet had to talk to their customer service, but their management interface is simple and flexible enough that I haven't had to.


I have used Namecheap's customer service (my fault entirely) and it has been super excellent. They usually have a turnaround time of a few hours and are 24X7.

They also have a forum where you can request for specific features - a couple of months back I posted requesting for account management pages to be made HTTPS.. and now they are. Dunno if the post made a difference.

However, their branding is stupid: I cant get my clients to register their domains on anything called "cheap" - especially corporate ones. I suggest gandi.net in that case.

I got an app for time tracking and I track everything. Eating, watching videos, browsing, sleeping, and the occasional working. It's awesome because when I looked back at the pie chart for the day and see three quarters of it is sleeping and browsing, I felt like a complete doofus.

(I use aTimeLogger, it's free and does everything I need)


This sounds like a fantastic idea.


I have to list all my former employers? That is absurd.


I too would love to hear this.

> why you should pay me money to access information that you could research yourself

I've been consistently satisfied with my researching skills. It's nice that you've collected a lot of stuff, but I don't really need you to do that for me. What I need is someone that understands why I personally have problems making presentations and what I can do to fix them. Then I need her to coach me or review my videos.

(Hypothetical customer me, that is. Real me just got home from teaching.)

You should address how you intend to teach people to present, or otherwise display that you have some understanding of where their problems are. I also second the notion that you are going to want a video in your promotional materials.
