I had a great domain name idea but I just can’t find an American registrar for the Nigerian ccTLD registry. Anyone know of one?

@cshirky I killed it. Thanks for letting me know! I wonder how they did it. (I’m the dev manager of X.CO.)

@ozlubling I’d buy that. I’m coming from Mail.app rather than Sparrow so it’s not as obvious. I’m mainly in it for the power features.

@mattgemmell You can complain because you were really excited about some great innovations in email clients. You just can’t act entitled.

SteveStreza Sparrow and Tweetie. Both paid apps. Both sold out and killed. If you want apps to last forever, write them yourself.

@mwickens Phew! I can’t wait! Did they say when it’s coming back? Or when the new ARB is coming? Sorry to make you my OCON correspondent. :)

@mwickens They don’t think the problem with the Campus was design or lack of content, do they? It couldn’t stay up and was slow when it did.
