Okie dokie -- Monitor For Me as a home alarm monitoring service was an utter flop, so I let it stagnate while I moved on to other things.<p>The other day a critical server of mine went down and I only discovered it by chance. "Shazam," I thought, "a pivot is in order!" I reoriented the service, got it live, and then I discovered Pingdom, UptimeRobot, and the several other options (that I somehow missed in my single cursory Google search) that already provide monitoring and notifications.<p>Not to worry, though, because I still believe I can carve out a piece of the market.<p>Monitor For Me checks up to 10 websites (or any hostname/IP and port that can be opened) every minute per user for $15/month. It'll also capture and show you response times from (currently) three cities around the US, and I plan to add a 4th in the US and one in London before too long.<p>Obviously there are a tremendous number of reporting, connection types, and options in general that can be added for value, but I want to start with the MVP -- a simple service to let you know (by SMS or email) when your server goes down.<p>Any hackers around here mind signing up and trying it out and letting me know what you think? Am I wasting my time (because the product needs more oomph or because there just isn't market share available)?<p>Edit: Also, if you've used other services like this, what was missing? What was unnecessary?<p>If you don't mind taking a look, visit http://monitorfor.me (clicky below), and use the access code HNFTW (limited to 15 users, I'll update if it fills up) for a free month of access.<p>Thanks a million!<p>- John
