You know the story: you go to a website and you get 404′ed. Now you know your connection is fine. You make sure and fire up your mail, download the RSS and send an email while your waiting for your RSS that you know is working. You try the obvious sites like Google. Then you check a site that you know is on the other side of the world. Then you fire up your twitter client and make sure that’s working and send a tweet asking if “x” website is down for anyone else. Then you decide that it ain’t me. Or is it?

Well now there is an easier way: Down For Everyone or Just Me? answers this question very quickly and easily. Just put in the link that is giving you grief and you’ll get your answer.

Although what it won’t tell you is if the 404 is a regional problem or global. So it may be down for you and the rest of the Australian eastern seaboard as well. So don’t take it to heart if it is “Just You”.
Cool tools and useful, sure as heck saves you the time otherwise.
