www.usgo.org seems to be down. pings ok, and curl reports connecting to port 80, but then "connection reset"

Can anyone recommend a website/service that monitors, calculates and graphs up/down time of another website and/or service?

It would be great if this mythical service could distinguish between the issues of dns, connectivity, host machine, and web service.

Any recommendations?

Thanks, xed_over,

That site is great for one-time checking. Is there anything out there that consistently monitors (every 1 to 5 minutes) and produces statistics and maybe even a graph?

Pingdom supposedly does what you want. I don't know how useful they are.

I don't remember the name atm, but we use one such a service in my company. I can look it up, but I'm pretty sure it's a paid service

http://www.monitor.us/

But i think it makes more sense to choose a reliable web service from the start: http://www.webhostingjungle.com/, http://www.web-hosting-top.com/

Won't tell whether it's a DNS issue, site down, cache fcuk, or anything deeper down, which is useful to know if it's time to start running like beheaded chicken or just wait for the DNS ttl. Also better to put it in a script, cron it and make it send an email ;)
