I use that site every time I can't access a website. It's a godsend.

I use Pingdom, and now BinaryCanary. Also, UptimeRobot is good as well.

Downforeveryoneorjustme are good for checking a specific site - if it is down right now.

http://just-ping.com/ is no doubt one of the best idea to ensure that your website is accessible all across the world or not.

Normally what i do, ping to the host/domain nor IP of the site. And then proceed with Pingdom Monitor to check network status or else visits isitdownformeoryou site-downtime-check.

I agree. Pingdom is one of the most convenient tools to monitor the uptime of your website. Been using it for quite some time and found it to be handy specially during the times the shared server my domain was residing into had been down.
