[Solved] Google Apps naked domains and GoDaddy

If you're using Google Apps, you may have seen a toggle between enabling current and advanced Google Apps features. There's another one to give prerelease features. Depending on when you signed up and how these were toggled, you may have been able to add one of the apps (or appspot) to your naked domain (hostname.com). This changes for later signups and when toggling the settings. The new recommendation is to not map anything to the naked domain, and instead put a forward from your domain company. If you're using GoDadday that requires knowing a secret A record and IP address that is neither intuitive nor obvious, but IS available in this article, which also happens to be my first knol link.

May be useful for Heroku users as well.
