An AP newswire article by Anick Jesdanun, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
High traffic disrupted Wal-Mart Stores Inc.'s Web site for much of Friday, one of the year's busiest shopping days.More here.
The troubles came a day after Amazon.com Inc.'s site had brief disruptions because of a Thanksgiving Day sale on Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox 360 video game machines.
For much of Friday morning, attempts to open Walmart.com resulted blank pages, delays or other problems. By early afternoon, visitors were simply told to come back later.
Walmart.com spokeswoman Amy Colella blamed a "higher than anticipated traffic surge."
