  3. I'm ashamed it's taken me two years to take my business elsewhere. #boycottgodaddy (-)
  4. And, you know, in re #boycottgodaddy I've always found @GoDaddy's misogynist marketing vile and reprehensible. (+)
  5. … but also because @GoDaddy has always struck me as rather sleazy. Feeling much cleaner now. #boycottgodaddy
  6. Missed last week's transfer extravaganza, but arranged to move old domain names away from @GoDaddy today. Not just because of #SOPA … (+)

  15. Rogers: Q2: Analyze output of another publisher like Bettesworth. Overlap? Come together in some places depart in others? #Defoe11

  17. Rogers: Haven't found it. #Defoe11
