Show HN: A simple website monitor with email and IRC notifications

I wrote my own monitoring system which does a lot of monitoring stuff, for example:
* Testing SMTP hosts.
* Testing SSH hosts.
* Testing MySQL databases.
* Testing websites.
* (Much more too!)
There are a lot of options even for testing websites though; testing the status code is 200, testing that some specific text is present in the output, testing that the results match a given regular expression. Handling redirections, or not, submitting data via POST, etc, etc.
I wish you luck in your project, though I guess if it already meets your needs you don't need that. My own application is golang based too, and can be found here:
I haven't been commenting much lately, but I really wanted to tell you, very nice work
Of course it was written for my own needs, so it could well be the case that other people would want to write their own. I'm certainly no stranger to reinventing wheels, if only to experiment, practice, and learn!
