Monitoring Internet Health

It seems that there was a rather large issue at Level3 today on the Internet. Our provider was down for an hour or so while they rerouted traffic.  We were on it and rerouted our Firm’s traffic through an alternate site within a few minutes of the outage.  I’m always clamoring for more information as to how well things are running and how wide spread an outage is.  Here are a few links that are useful in investigating Internet issues:

Do you have any sites you use for this?  If so, hit me up in the comments.
