Go Daddy just...goes

Go Daddy, the domain host of 53 million names including many travel and travel-related websites, went black for several hours on Monday afternoon.

Internet users across the country tweeted or Facebooked their e mail and website outage like Internet pundit Johnny Jet who wrote on Facebook, "I thought it was weird I haven’t received an e mail in two hours."

Rumors circulated that an "Anonymous"-related hacker had caused the black out.

The company resolved the black out and today released a statement that the system-wide failure was not due to a hacker but to "internal network events."
