A webmaster might be in India and get complaints from someone in South Africa. Main assumption could be something is wrong with the website; but this way you will immediatly know if there has been a disruption. Also the list is growing so might give a good oppurtunity to see if some APIs have too much downtime before actually putting them up on your website. Very important for online trade/ money transfer APIs which can often directly hurt the bottom line of a website. @Anshul: It is probabl very useful of site owners while trouble shooting as it gives an idea on countries or regions the service is down.

Maybe you can throw some more light on that aspect... It’s a good service but I really don’t see how it is going to be useful to site owners and web masters.
