My server status is actually a script that resides offsite and does a port check every 5 minutes, I can even demonstrate this for you by taking down FTP on our testing server which would cause a green light to turn red and a link to appear with details on which server is down.

Before you talk about something you don't know about, I think you need to do some research.

99.998% uptime is 36 seconds of downtime for a server reboot on July 12, 2003. Time period of 1 year.

Keep talking though!
