I use this app every few hours to check up on my servers ;). It would be
really sweet if it included some kind of widget for the main screen that
updates every so often and a notification system to alert if a server
hasn't responded more then 10 checks or so. I've noticed a server can be
full and responding and the next few refreshes it will look offline while
other servers still show up.

Such a great app!!!! ;)
