If you’ve been following our coverage of the change to take place at Name.com, you’ve probably tweaked your account settings already.
For those domain investors with Name.com accounts that have a short memory span (hello Jared Ewy!) allow us to reboot your brain:
Name.com is changing its Two-Step Verification service on March 5, 2015. On that date Verisign credentials will be shut down, and we’ll exclusively use Google Authenticator for Two-Step Verification.
You can continue using your Verisign credentials until then, but if you do not add Google Authenticator credentials to your account by March 5 you will no longer have Two-Step Verification. Google credentials can be added at any time.
The Google Authenticator app is a free download, and is available on iOS, Android, and Blackberry devices.
Sadly, there is no desktop app like with the Verisign option, but oh well.

Not everyone has a smart phone, so…
Ms Domainer – That’s a good point.
