In addition to following the NANOG and outages.org lists on our Blackberries we have a computer in the office with three monitors on it showing our Nagios network status map, the Weather Underground animated radar map for our area, and Keynote's Internet Health Report ( http://www.internetpulse.net/ ).
The only time a monitor with TV news would have been handy was when a tire recycling plant caught fire and something in the plume of smoke degraded a few of our backhaul paths. I wish our local electric companies had a status web site for power outages, but we approximate it by looking for large numbers of subscriber radios dropping offline at once.
