I’ve been waiting for an explanation like this for years! My problem is that I thought I could merge the accounts by adding my Apps account to my vanilla account and then set the Apps email address as the primary one. It turns out you can’t do that, but now my Apps account is somehow associated with the vanilla account. I really have no idea what data would and wouldn’t be retained if I disassociate the two and then create a vanilla account using the method described in the article. To me, the solution *seems* so simple…allow me to merge the accounts and set which email address is the primary one. Bonus points if they let me choose the alternate email address at will (ex: for emailing stories from Reader).

I think GoDaddy starts with the obnoxious idea that only men use computers, then use another obnoxious idea that men are helpless against advertising that uses pretty girls, and that’s how we end up with this crap. Along with those above me, I’ve also avoided GoDaddy because the ads make them seem sleazy.

Like Jeremy, I use (and am happy with) DreamHost, but I don’t know if I could recommend them to someone who used their website as a source of income. You get a lot for a little, but reliability can sometimes be a problem, especially with their in-house email.

Nice video, definitely looks like a helpful system. The 605 items in my inbox suggest I need to try this out!

One side note…the angle you’re looking away from the camera is a little awkward for the viewer. It’s far enough away that I feel like I’m eavesdropping on a conversation I’m not a part of.

Anyway…looking forward to seeing more of these. Subscribed

If you have an existing setup with iCal and Google Calendar using CalDAV, is there any benefit to setting it up the new way?
