I didn't mention it in the post, but you bring up a great point in self hosting. Like you said, it gives you a lot more flexibility in controlling the name as well as look and feel of the website.

It's a small investment that can pay big dividends down the road in terms of controlling your name online so I'm sure you'll be glad to have the domain names.

I'm in the process of moving over a site I did with a free host to a paying one in order to own my domain as well as have more flexibility with what I want it to become. I've found that my site has been a great extension to who I am when presenting myself to employers and allows me to combine my portfolio, blog and other elements all in one place. Good post!

I had been discouraged a few weeks ago when I found out my full name (amandamiller) wasn't available, but your post was just what I needed to make sure I didn't miss out on an opportunity to register other forms of my names. Several friends have also responded to the retweet. Thanks for bringing this subject to the front of our minds! Chris, this was a great idea.
