Matt Cutts has the same pedometer. I agree with him, although it'd be even better if these devices could connect and upload data to my computer (and to the cloud) automatically via Bluetooth or WI-FI w/o having to remove it from my bag at all.
Quoted: Now I just wish every health device could connect to a computer. Omron offers a blood pressure monitor that also connects to your computer using the same software as the pedometer (it’s all seamless). I’ve tried it, and the blood pressure monitor works well. If Omron ever offered a scale that connected to a computer, I’d immediately get one of those, too. :) In the meantime, I’m not aware of any other pedometers or blood pressure monitors that connect to a computer, so it’s a good thing that they’re both solid products. :)

I wonder what current Google service he is referring to. In any case, I like his idea...
Quoted: In fact, it is such a serious business that I have a second recommendation for Google. They have a service today that Ryan used to determine what the problem was for his site. Apparently the site was hacked and spammers inserted some bogus links that he wasn’t even aware of. I sympathize. A blog gets big and who spends time patrolling every post looking for such misdeeds? My suggestion for Google is to offer a reporting service. They could certainly charge for it if they wanted, because it is critical stuff for a lot of sites. For a nominal fee, perhaps $5 or so a month, it should be possible to get an email alert whenever your site’s status changes with Google. Whether that is a page rank change, or the more serious step of being delisted, you’d get an email when it happened. I have to believe this would be a net profit generator for Google, as well as a comfort for those who rely on Google.

We are using mon.itor.us for basic availability monitoring. They have an API -- although I am fine with their embeddable widget for now.

One more.
Quoted: The free website monitoring service that doesn't suck. Montastic sends you an email each time your server goes down. Server statuses are also available by RSS and widget.

Looks very cool -- potentially better than the 'for pay' product (ServersCheck) that we are using now.
Quoted: ZABBIX is an enterprise-class open source distributed monitoring solution for networks and applications.

This is a remote monitoring service.
Quoted: Keynote Red Alert™ is an easy-to-use, highly reliable Web monitoring service that checks your Web applications at least four times each hour, and notifies you whenever they become inaccessible, return incorrect data, or respond slowly to connection requests.
And some other ones:

http://www.alertsite.comIt's amazing how much they charge to just run a rule that periodically makes a web request and verifies the response.
