I've had EXTREMELY good luck with <a href="http://enomcentral.com" target="_blank">enomcentral.com</a> (formerly <a href="http://enom.com" target="_blank">enom.com</a>).<br>
<br>
They've had one day of down time in 10 years (due to a sysAdmin goof).<br>
<br>
They have geographically dispersed DNS servers running Linux throughout<br>
the U.S. each on multiple backbones with generator backup.<br>
<br>
Their web interface is easy to use. They use a short aging value so<br>
that when you change a DNS entry it takes effect quickly.<br>
<br>
They answer their phone by the third ring or so 24x7.<br>
<br>
Their price is reasonable (not the cheapest but the best).<br>
<br>
If you ask me privately I'll tell you another reason to like them.<br>
<br>
WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T USE "Network Solutions". I think they're<br>
terrible!<br>

I have all my sites on there and I enjoy the process of buying/renewing domains. Their support is a little shaky (you can only email them), but I haven't had many issues to begin with. I'm not certain if other domain registrars have this option, but you can update your registrar & technical information in a bulk fashion.<br>
