Yesterday I sat in on Bob Kelly’s keynote on Microsoft’s next-gen hosting platform for service providers. Mid-way through, Eric Wagner of Go Daddy came on stage and the two discussed the companies’ partnership, and Go Daddy’s successes using Windows Server 2008. Something I found particularly interesting was that since Go Daddy launched their hosted Windows Server 2008 offerings six weeks ago, they already have tens of thousands of customers requesting IIS7. Not bad, eh?
