Few folks are aware of one of my behind the scenes janitorial jobs. I'm somewhat responsible for ensuring that a lot of amatuer-run Bitcoin web sites remain online.
How so? I have scripts that check the liveness of every one of the thousands of links on my Bitcoin Resources site.
When a site goes down, it alerts me, then I reach out to the site's operator.
It's amazing how few people monitor their own sites given that there are plenty of services that will do it for free.
