As promised, here is a preview of the application that will be the basis of my presentation at Adobe MAX 2008 presentation in San Francisco Tuesday November 18 at 1:30pm.
What is URLTestr? It is an AIR application that will monitor websites and trigger alerts when it detects that a URL is offline.
Simply install, add some URL’s to monitor and explore the rest of the app. The final version may include a few additional features that are currently under development. Can you say, email or text message alerts? 
Please leave your comments within this post.

Where’s the link to download? Couldn’t find it in the post…

Found it, it’s the big thing that looks like an ad.
I think my brain does not even see web ads anymore. *lol*

I found this small app really handy.
But I wanted to learn more about on refresh rates and so. You’re planning a more descripted update? :p

You mean the rate in which it checks for status? This will certainly be covered in the MAX session.

Yep that rate. Unfortunately I can’t make to SF.
Quick remark: I don’t know what your service tests maybe it’s something that parse the http://json-head.appspot.com/ results.
Anyway, I’m facing an uri that does not return any result.
In FF all I get is a Network Timeout error (The server at http://www.coliposte.net is taking too long to respond.) The json-head returns a {”ok”: false, “error”: “ApplicationError: 3 “}.
Kinda strange

Very interesting I don’t know why http://json-head.appspot.com/ is returning a false positive. I will look into this next week as I am off for a short vacation.

Hi, I get a “This application has expired” message. Do you have a plan to release an updated version?
