This is another website I ran into recently that I bookmarked on my BlackBerry. It’s not a BlackBerry or even a mobile specific website, but it fills a gap that I had. Have you ever tried to reach a website and it looked like it was down but you could not confirm it? Turns out that DownForEveryoneOrJustMe is meant to answer that question.
You just punch in a URL and it will tell you if the website is down for just you or for everybody. Nothing more and nothing less…
Check it out at www.DownForEveryoneOrJustMe.com and let me know what you think.

That’s really nice, but where are we supposed to go if DownForEveryoneOrJustMe.com seems to be down?

Strange, it just told me that http://www.amazon.com was down, but actually I was able to go there just fine.

Cool but when sites are protected by htaccess they’ll look down.

Luciano ES: Well it told me that a site was down, but it wasn’t, it’s just that you need login & pass to access it. See http://www.elated.com/articles/password-protecting-your-pages-with-htaccess/
Even if you don’t have the password you could see that the site is not technically down, I guess?

If a site isn’t working all I ever get from them is “Huh? doesn’t look like a site on the interwho.” I find it to be completely useless.
