Hardly surprising

Its kinda funny how BBR members read this article and think of it as a travesty. Thats because we know our way around the web. We know what services are free and which ones are pay for services. There are hundreds of thousands of sites offering pay for services that you can find free elsewhere. The problem is that the common user wants a path of least resistance. Look at all the people who were on AOL and were actually PAYING $10 a month to keep their service just to get access to their email when they moved to broadband.

I've been trying to get my girlfriend off MSN, but she doesn't want to. Partly because her brother pays the bill and has for as long as she can remember, so it doesn't hit her pocket directly, and thus no responsibility.

It's what she's used to, but it's not my cup of tea. Especially @ $120/yr. I've offered to give her a choice of whatever name she wants at my domain, IMAP/POP, but wants to stick with MSN.

Edit: left out a word.

And so castles made of sand, slip into the sea, eventually.

I'm the Dude. So that's what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.
