9. cityintheclouds May 23rd at 11:58 am

   Nifty, but I’ve already done that with my main domain name. Will bear it in mind for future reference though. Keep up the good work!

    Oh, and Google Apps are great. I’m writing a book on Google Apps for Thomson/CoursePTR:

    Great upgrade. I was missing this thing. Thanks guys!
12. pinkjesus May 23rd at 12:19 pm

    Pink Jesus thanks you for the email integration. Praise Pink Jesus!

    Domain Aliasing works with GAYD! I’m verified and sending mail on my domain again. Yay!

    You might want to update your process to include that option: “Point MX to Google Apps” and leave it at that.

    Some of us don’t need to enter any verification information. We just need the MX record modified.

    I’d love to get rid of that empty and looming verification box in my WP.com Admin panel waiting for me to fill in and click save that will never happen.

    Wow!!!

18. plubius May 23rd at 12:25 pm

    Thanks =D

    I have to get my domain up and running.
19. amiripz May 23rd at 12:26 pm

    So, where it is going to work for us ?
20. reasic May 23rd at 12:28 pm

    Awesome! I’m doing it, I’m doing it! 😛

    Google: ” We are checking domain ownership. This may take 48 hours to complete.”
21. Universalgeni May 23rd at 12:30 pm

    Please do not write just for the local duck pond over there. I don’t get all that slang and closed insider information. The relaxed form is very nice. But please remember, that you are an international business. What are you talking abort? An international English would be nice…
22. Rui Martins May 23rd at 12:55 pm

    I´ve done it!
    Now let´s wait for the dns propagation…

    Thanks a lot for that improvement!
23. Kunal May 23rd at 1:10 pm

    nice … upgrading an upgrade 🙂

    by the way, has the millionth blog been made?
24. Rui Martins May 23rd at 1:29 pm

    It worked and it is on the run, now!
25. Luthfi May 23rd at 1:34 pm

    nice 🙂
    but $10 still too expensive …
    Free charge if we use our domain in blogger.com. when will wordpress do the same?
26. Kaan May 23rd at 1:36 pm

    great news.
    i waited long for this upgrade. thanks.
27. Mocha! May 23rd at 1:47 pm

    Ok…more stuff from WP admin. Nice one! Keep ’em coming.
28. Tom May 23rd at 2:06 pm

    That’s great – thanks for the meta-upgrade 🙂
29. Kambiz Kamrani May 23rd at 2:13 pm

    This saves my life. Thanks for doing this guys!
30. feartheseeds May 23rd at 2:28 pm

    “subdomains” almost sounds like a sandwich… any chance the upgrade will include a subsub? I really could use a sandwich…
31. just4ikarus May 23rd at 2:39 pm

    hey, that’s cool …

    Oh, Andy
    I wish if subdomains could also have an e-mail for ex:gogetsu@gogetsupokemon.wordpress.com

    Cheers!
34. Pas May 23rd at 2:55 pm

    Great!!!

    Wow, Killer feature…
    You guys rock
40. engtech May 23rd at 4:11 pm

    Wow. Registering a domain is FAST now. It was live within 20 minutes.
41. Josh Miller May 23rd at 4:42 pm

    Works for me. Pretty sweet.
42. Stephen Elliot May 23rd at 4:44 pm

    My initial reaction: Sweet! I’ve been waiting for this!
    My second reaction: Blast! I just printed business cards yesterday with another email address, but I really wanted to use my domain.

    Oh well. Thanks guys! =)
43. Hameed Khan May 23rd at 5:13 pm

    Thanks! Its like you people can read our minds. I just switched to Google apps two days ago. It like great to have my blog domain on google apps too 🙂
44. carthik May 23rd at 5:24 pm

    Nice! Very nice. Keep upping the ante on hosted blog services. You should really have a list of “only at wp.com” features that sets your apart from Typepad, blogger et al.
45. josh May 23rd at 5:25 pm

    I may now be ready to map my domain! Now I just need to reclaim the domain form my hosting company, who registered it in their name. Is this common practice? Will they let me go without a fight?
46. 0xcafe May 23rd at 5:37 pm

    Wow! Great stuff ! 😛
47. kazik May 23rd at 5:40 pm

    Very usefull 🙂 Thanks! Hope it will come in handy in the future (for me) 🙂
48. Linh760Li May 23rd at 6:02 pm

    It’s really useful. Thanks a lot.
49. shortexact May 23rd at 7:16 pm

    Oh man, thank you so much. You guys rock.
50. Lucas May 23rd at 7:27 pm

    Maybe I should upgrade some time.. 🙂
51. natanzuelo May 23rd at 7:58 pm

    Awesome! I’m planning to use it!

    Nice Idea ! Thank you !!!
57. tazspaz May 23rd at 9:34 pm

    hmm…I hate to do this but …

    http://get.live.com/betas/home

    I have been using this for both a blog and a domain I actually have forwarded and masked to a new domain name.

    Maybe I’m off base?

    Enjoy!

    thanks
61. Paul Denton May 24th at 1:02 am

    yeah, but if you disable cookies none of the blogs on personal domain works
62. mudin001 May 24th at 1:38 am

    fantastic!
63. americanuck May 24th at 2:34 am

    THANK YOU!!!
64. William T. Foxtrot May 24th at 5:07 am

    Man, I don’t usually leave thank-yous here when you guys add a new feature, but this is DEFINITELY one I’ve been waiting for. Thanks a lot, I’m really happy that I switched from hosting my own WordPress blog to having you guys host it. You take care of your bloggers 🙂 .

    wow … I had set up another domain for email to get around this … this is awesome!
72. Brian Purkiss May 24th at 7:13 pm

    OH AWESOME!!!!
    I’m going to set that up right now!!!
    Thanks y’all for setting that up!!!
73. Brent May 24th at 9:20 pm

    Does this only apply to email, or will other GAFYD services work as well, like Docs and Spreadsheets, etc.?

    This would really be a good thing. I was just ranting about this last night, albeit with humor in mind.

    Good stuff. Thanks Andy.
74. Netty May 24th at 10:19 pm

    Good idea! 🙂
75. erikcurtis May 24th at 10:25 pm

    This is great. How about allowing mx pointers to other mail hosting services? The one I’m looking at is officelive.com Google apps are great but the don’t offer any way to sync my online calendar with my Windows Mobile smart phone.
76. Peat May 25th at 2:59 am

    Hot — if I already have my domain mail hosted with Google, will it work as well?
77. themrs07 May 25th at 3:35 am

    You work so hard. 🙂
78. raincoaster May 25th at 6:26 am

    Yeah baby!
79. Coops May 25th at 8:57 am

    And when I heard of this feature I thought it was months away. I should never have doubted. YAY! 🙂
80. muriella May 25th at 11:09 am

81. Henrik Sundholm May 25th at 2:21 pm

    Great ^^
82. Calvin May 25th at 3:18 pm

    Wow! I’m really going to have to consider the domain mapping upgrade! Thanks.
83. vjp May 25th at 6:14 pm

    Nice feature. But I, too, wish we could use it with subdomains, which is how I have my blog mapped.
84. Alarka May 25th at 8:07 pm

    Nice. Also, “V for Vendetta” is in your face, eheh! 😛
85. fnerd May 25th at 9:11 pm

    Outstanding. I’ve been longing for this feature. I’ll never go back to virtual hosting ever again!
86. p4ndu_454kura May 26th at 4:09 am

    Wow! Cool!
    Now I can make my own map
87. Murlin Chow May 26th at 12:25 pm
