I have an AppEngine app attached to .net domain.
.net domain is hosted in GoDaddy and
I use GoogleApps standard attached to this
domain.

According Google Apps recommendations:
A Host:
@=216.239.32.21
@=216.239.34.21
@=216.239.36.21
@=216.239.38.21

CNAME:

naked domain forwarded to www in Google Apps.

Worked fine from several days.

Today too, just tried to access it 10 mins ago
from Chrome and it was forwarded to Faceboook page!?!?
With Mozilla - forwarded to Oracle login page!?!?

Tested with Safari and IE - no problem.

Maybe a problem in a DNS server upstream from you?

What do you mean DNS upstream? 

The question is if my user get this it will be totally weird
for him.

When you put your web address into the browser, it has to be translated into an IP address. That happens through a series of caching servers, starting with your local machine. If one of those caches gets screwed up and thinks you address lives at facebook, then this is what you'd see.

Do we have control on this?

People I follow have been reporting that some hosting services' DNS has been completely messed up for a day or two recently ... so it may well be that.

You can use something like http://whois.domaintools.com/ to lookup your domain name and see how it's being resolved. And if you post the domain name here, I can tell you how it resolves via my DNS...

But this is Google's IP Addresses:

@=216.239.32.21
@=216.239.34.21
@=216.239.36.21
@=216.239.38.21

I believe Google has a stable solution.

Anyway - I checked form another location
at the absolutely the same time - there there 
was not any issue - i asked another person to check.

Also If you read my original post this happened 
only with Chrome and Mozilla browse.
Chrome redirecting to facebook.com,
Mozilla to oracle.com

IE and Safary where OK. All of them were opened up 
and refreshed in same time under 2-3 secs interval to be able
to compare. On the other location same 
browsers opened at the same time and refreshed 
the same way - no issue at the same time we both tested.

After 10 minutes - no issue. There is also nothing in the AppEngine
logs to see.
