Uberuseful site Ding It's Up is like the companion website to Down For Everyone or Just Me?. The latter tells you when a site is definitely down, and Ding It's Up lets you know when it's back in action.

Websites tend to go down right when you need them, so having Ding It's Up email you (or Twitter or text) as soon as you can get on with your life is totally the ultimate in relief tech.
