Planet goes down

Today turned to be a brutal day in web hosting.

Tonight at 5:45 p.m. in Houston, Texas, a transformer in The Planet H1 datacenter caught fire. The fire department required them to take down all generators.

When should affected customers be back online?

When NewsBlaze asked, they said "According to the last update, power should be restored in the data center tomorrow afternoon."

Who is affected?

Many domain names, websites and reseller accounts. One of their top resellers, Hostgator is down with customers left in the lurch

Hopefully this all resolves soon.
