A Couple of Firefox Monitoring Extensions
I tend to be dreadful for adding on extensions for firefox, it’s a problem that also extends to finding addons for wordpress and joomla. Occasionally though you can find a couple of really handy extensions.
One such extension is nagios checker. We use nagios at Gladserv it emails us when something goes wrong. Still that relies on my email client alerting me when I happen to be at the screen. Of course you can set Nagios to send a text or even go and look at your own nagios site.
