It's a common problem of domain registrars / hosting providers. They're too focused on up-selling other services and the secondary market instead of serving the actual internet user. We're watching the identity community closely with <a href="http://iwantmyname.com" rel="nofollow">iWantMyName</a> and will definitely provide identity management features in the future. For now, we already made the domain registration process easy and are helping users setting up apps like Gmail, Tumblr, Posterous etc. “…the usability of facebook is vastly higher then the usability of domain name registration, cpanel management and other things involved in getting ones own personal web presence going”
