To our Dyn free hostname users:
For the last 15 years, all of us at Dyn have taken pride in offering you and millions of others a free version of our Dynamic DNS Pro product. What was originally a product built for a small group of users has blossomed into an exciting technology used around the world.
That is why with mixed emotions we are notifying you that in 30 days, we will be ending our free hostname program. This change in the business will allow us to invest in our customer support teams, Internet infrastructure, and platform security so that we can continue to strive to deliver an exceptional customer experience for our paying customers.
We would like to invite you to upgrade to VIP status for less than $20 — a 25% discount good for any package of Remote Access (formerly DynDNS Pro). By doing so, you'll have access to customer support, additional hostnames, and more.
Here's how you get this done in two easy steps:
— Login to account.dyn.com.
— Click here to add Remote Access to your cart at the 25% off VIP rate. The discount will be applied upon checkout.
We thank you for your usage of Dyn through the years, and hope to continue to support you through Dyn Remote Access or other products for years to come. Visit our FAQ page or this blog post for more information.
I love to scream along to Death Metal in the car. I suspect it may have problems with that.

Yeah, but that was intelligent jam. Totally different.
Like this wasn't immediately obvious. There will be a handful that were great, but a wholesale shake up would do more. And no, your specific congress-critter isn't special. Vote in the primaries too.
There's actually several that already do this (feedspot and newsblur come to mind), though the price seems to be about $2 a month. Feedly is talking about a price for extra features, sort of like Evernote.
No, actually... he's referring to the original slashdot review of the iPod.
"No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame."
And yes, while accurate on the tech specs, it fails to point out the true difference was the UI, how to load it up (iTunes), etc.
TL;DR - tech specs aren't everything. YOU care about them, but most people just want something that works well.
