If it's totally free, how will you make money? Where's the business?

We'll be working on some premium features which will be charged a lot lower than competition. Most core features will be free tough! So we're going towards a freemium model.

Can you please elaborate on the features you guys consider premium?

> REST API for power users to update/change DNS records

Is there documentation for this? I was only able to find how to update an IP address. What about adding domains/sub-domains through the API, etc?

Is not yet documented, but yes, our REST api supports all operations on zones and records and is ActiveResource-compatible

http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveResource/Base.html

Will e-mail redirection be among those premium features?

We have not decided on this one, but the service will definitely have this feature.
