Launch of IsWebSiteDown.com
What do you do when you see a screen like this?

Over the weekend I made a new site called IsWebsiteDown.com that lets you see if there is a problem with a website or your connection to that site. A toolbar widget for one click checking of sites is available. No install is necessary, you just click and drag a link on the homepage of IsWebsiteDown to your browser’s toolbar.
The site was build in ruby with the merb framework in just a few hours. The design needs work, and I’m working on a few new features. In the next few months, I hope to launch more small sites as a foundation for launching some larger projects.
