Bitcoin community has recently been suffering Denial of Service attacks, many important sites as MtGox, Blockchain.info or Bitcoinity have been down for several hours.
Using BitcoinStatus.org you can check instantly if 10 Bitcoin Websites are up or down. Also the website checks if they have been down any time in the last hour.



In the back-end, a server checks this 10 websites every 60 seconds and return a status icon.

The website is has been fully coded by me and is available without ads.
If you like this service considering donating some coins to the address listed in the website.

http://bitcoinstatus.org




FEATURING NEW MOBILE VERSION
Just type "bitcoinstatus.org" in you smartphone to access the new desing for smartphones.

I like it, keep up the good work!

It's like pingdom just for bitcoin sites. I donated a little because I think it looks good.

Suggestion, can you make it a Bookmarklet like "BIPS Send Bitcoin" so you can add it to your bookmark bar, click it and have a modal window popup.

Thank you very much, I am a average student and this donation help me to pay the website hosting.

In the next update I will implement your suggestion.

I have updated the website adding more Bitcoin websites, increasing loading speed and fixing some bugs.

Some new features suggested by users:
Quote
json version
add bitcoin.clarkmoody.com
cache the response
update your online status every 60 seconds
adding bitcoinium.com as well.
List the websites down the page instead of across on one line. It's easier to follow.
add vircurex.com
add campbx.com
Bitcoin stack exchange community.
The character encoding of the HTML document was not declared

Featuring a new JSON public API (also suggested by a user).
The website is has been fully coded by me and is available without ads. If you like this service considering donating some coins to the address listed in the website.

If you go to http://bitcoin-status.org (not the - in between) there is even more detailed data available including charts, etc.
Is this intended, that only the version with the minus shows the charts?

Site looks good man, and I'm sure it's appreciated that you don't bombard people with ads.
