Articles like this only add to my confusion on the internals of HN's voting algorithm, and how some content ends up on the front page.
However I have to agree with the title : don't go with GoDaddy. Searched for domains, they were free, came back a few hours later and they were scooped up by an anonymous chinese "company", offering to sell them at an obviously ridiculous price. Scam if ever I saw one.
Just bought my first domain name at GoDaddy 2 days ago (it's a .co, and GoDaddy has a nice bargain on those). Oh well, maybe I'll transfer in a couple of months.
Actually I hate the web interface and domain management panel. "Too user-friendly" and too many options.

"GoDaddy's interface may be user-friendly" ...
...huh?! The single worst thing about GoDaddy is its user interface.
When you choose a registrar, pick the cheapest. Honesty, how often do you muck around with your domain settings? Once a year?
my favorite of all these is name. namely because it's not godaddy, and it's not as expensive as the two mentioned in the article.
