  "textContent": "Hi,\n\nI started a side project recently. It's currently an MVP. It’s a monitoring tool for websites and web services. You give it a list of URLs and it'll check them regularly. If there’s an error, it will notify you by email.\n\nIt's called Ping Now.\n\nIt’s not a new idea and many services provide the same core idea. But I want to get this basic version out to hopefully get some feedback and iterate. It just checks if the URL is up.\n\nIt only does 2 things when you give it a URL:\n\n * Hit \"Test\" and see if there's an error then and there\n * Add the URL to the list of URLs to monitor and you'll get an email when it fails\n\nYou'll need to sign up for a free account (you need it any way to get notified so I didn't try to make it optional.)\n\nMonitors get disabled after 1 hour unless you subscribe. So you should be able to test it out free.\n\nHappy for feedback via email at hboon@motionobj.com. Thanks so much.",
