GoDaddy Domain to Google Apps to Email Bliss

So I am seri­ously con­sid­er­ing now renew­ing my MobileMe/.Mac account when it comes up in 9 months. This is — indeed — quite a bit of type-a over-planning-in-advance, I real­ize, but please bear with me here: I need to get my saved IMAP fold­ers off MobileMe now! I want it on my GoDaddy account now because I get free email there with my host­ing and domain plans! My f-ing domain is there man … I want my username@mac.com saved mes­sages moved — now. See there? Just had a mas­sive type-a attack — right there, lit­er­ally via my fin­ger­tips thru the key­board out over the Inter­nets and to your inter­net con­nec­tion to your high-speed modem (prob­a­bly) then to a router (still — most have one, nut I real­ize I am now lim­it­ing my audi­ence, yes, how­ever if you are a red­neck on dial-up — still — ? You won’t ever read my blog any­how. I didn’t code it for you bro — you are lit­er­ally learn­ing e-Bay at this very moment, try­ing des­per­ately to fig­ure out why it takes so very long to load-up every image) .. [where was I?

I Love Led Zeppelin, Will Wheaton Nailed it, I can embed posts inline!

So as this post title states, this post is really three­fold: The first two points now, the last geek point at the end (scroll down). I have been a mas­sive Led Zep­pelin fan since I was weened off breast feeding.  I love to get the Led out, have all albums, col­lect rare vin­tage live record­ings (FLAC or other loss­less only please), run an old­school Car­ra­cho server for said live record­ings, and damn near cried when they had the reunion show in Lon­don and I didn’t have the money to make that epic jour­ney that would, for me, have been akin to an Islamic per­son return­ing to Mecca.  In short: I’m a big Led Zep­pelin fanatic.  In a recent tweet, Will Wheaton wrote: I’m cur­rently up to Phys­i­cal Graf­fiti, and have just dis­cov­ered that I don’t have the sound sys­tem, ’69 Nova, or long hair needed to really do this album justice. I com­pletely got what he was say­ing and twit­tered him back to please elaborate.  He was already on it, shortly after my reply he had already posted this and I thank the gods for another Zep­pelin soul such as this.  Very elegant… From: WWdN: In Exile: get­ting the led out Then [ ... ]
