Adam Curry apologized today for media not being available on the PodShow network for a couple of days. I heard that the Podshow.com domain actually expired. Can you believe it?

Adam acknowledged that himself, Ron Bloom and Go Daddy CEO Bob Parson's were responsible. Evidently Go Daddy is the domain registrar for PodShow. Although he believes that, "...there's no reason for Go Daddy to let that happen to one of their bigger clients."

The question that I have is this one. If you're starting a business that you plan to be a media empire, why would you only register the domain for a single year? It's not like the cost is prohibitive.

To be sure this has happened before to bigger companies. I once heard that Microsoft let the Hotmail.com domain expire.
