Twittermon: Twitter for server-monitoring

Posted on | July 15, 2007 | 5 Comments

iterating on a little script I wrote few months back (and inspired by a recent server-crash :( ) I have now put this script public on Twittermon. all you need to start watching your web-servers is an OpenID- & Twitter-account. Twittermon will check your sites every 5 minutes and alarm you via SMS, E-Mail & RSS if a server goes down.

Goto: http://twittermon.com

Twittermon

building Twittermon was a matter of few hours, thanks to CakePHP and Daniel Hofstetter’s OpenID-component. if nothing else, at least I’ve learned how to authenticate via OpenID (dead easy). :)

    Does this still work? I have signed up but have seen no evidence that it is operational. LOVE the concept and I really hope it still works.

    have you followed the watchdog-twitter-user? otherwise you won’t receive direct message…

    Looks like something like this was done: http://tinyurl.com/7jkk68. Not exactly what I was thinking, but it validates the concept.
