Montastic is a new website monitoring service that works by checking your site or sites at a given frequency, and then sending you an e-mail whenever anything goes amiss so that you can fix things up before calls from your customers or (worse still) your boss start pouring in. An e-mail is also sent out automatically when the site is up again.
Built with Ajax and Ruby on Rails, this web-based application is available at no cost whatsoever. Some of the most remarkable features of Montastic include support for https (a feature that was actually just implemented) and the ability to read statuses through RSS and widgets.
The team responsible for Montastic is Metadot, and it is clear they exerted themselves to come up with a solution that is not only easy-to-use but also as accurate as possible. Given that the service is provided for free and that it is so instantly accessible, chances are it will come in quite handy for more than internaut out there. Find out if you are part of that group by setting your browser at www.montastic.com and putting it to the task for yourself.
