I just received this email:

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN®) recently agreed to reduce their Registrar Transaction Fee from $.25 to $.22. What does this mean for you?

Good news. You have been credited $.03/yr for each domain name you registered or renewed dating back to July 1, 2006* — $.03 has been placed into your Go Daddy® account with this customer number: XXXXXX.

Your in-store credit will be applied to your purchases at GoDaddy.com® until it’s gone or for up to 12 months, whichever comes sooner. If you have any questions, please contact a customer service representative at 480-505-8877.

As always, thank you for being a Go Daddy customer.

Sincerely,

Bob Parsons
CEO and Founder
GoDaddy.com

THANKS ICANN FOR THINKING ABOUT SOMEONE OTHER THAN YOURSELF. I suppose that .03$ would be good for people with a billion domain names. But it kind of makes me laugh. Whatever you have to do to sleep better at night, ICANN.
