   Hey I just wanted to tell about my website, UptMon.
   It’s a tool for monitoring up- and response time for everything from websites to voice-over-IP services.
   The user can choose to receive reports in case of failures, and much more!

   The address is: http://uptmon.sytes.net

   And it’s completely free!
