I design things.

@Shucker @PaultnHarris @jrewing @mediatemple @SiteGround It's so frustrating. They gave me the same ultimatum after having an "excessive" file count for 14 years. And this is a few days after I renewed for another year of hosting. Which was followed by DNS problems. And an understaffed support team. And a formal transition to GoDaddy.

@deluko I found this review of Media Temple alternatives helpful since I want to leave MT as well. Hostinger, Kamatera, and A2 Hosting all seem to fit the semi-technical bill. And seem 1/10 to 1/5 the price for the same service. https://t.co/SROI0YG3HN

@jordan_fallis @DamianBHP @zackeryfretty @AmyReDob @mediatemple Also Wild West Domains = GoDaddy = Media Temple

@jordan_fallis @DamianBHP @zackeryfretty @AmyReDob @mediatemple If you're like me, some DNS settings are managed at https://t.co/4Iy2Fr8xtg while others are at https://t.co/ISjs3rRR2g. And if you're like me, you're confused why some domains don't appear in either place (even though whois says I'm the owner and registrar is Wild West Domains)

#GoogleFinance users aren't reacting negatively because people react negatively to change. They're reacting negatively to lost capability. Imagine having super powers and then losing them. #GoogleFinance - you were giving people super powers.

[Jeff Weir @internetically]

#GoogleFinance used to be a powerful tool for analysis, studying changes in data, and an elegant way to to scope windows of time. The poor redesign removes useful capabilities (dividend history, %change, volume, sparklines) while presenting data in an overly simplistic way.

[Jeff Weir @internetically]

Cars have serviceable engines. Chrome has developer tools. #GoogleFinance should have advanced charts. If you need a simpler entry, that's fine. But let people get to the complexity if they want it. People are smart. They can handle it.

@vanschneider Me too! And I'm still living the dream. To think, some Winamp skins are as old as the design students graduating this year.

A leader inspires hope and provides a vision.
A tyrant inspires fear and provides ambiguity.

When self driving vehicles reach ubiquity, Car And Driver magazine will just be called Car.

@nein09 Hah! Broken and ugly is an unfortunate quadrant to be in.

[Jeff Weir @internetically]

@nein09 It's a beautiful and stunning product. It is meant to be seen, not used.
