Ask HN: Any Free Service to monitor if website is up/down?

Hi, I am looking for any (free) service which monitors your website and notifies in case it's down. Are there any such services available?

Have used it for the past year or so and like it.

I am using ServiceUptime's free service, but looks like wasitup.com is much better. ServiceUptime pings website for every 30 mins while wasitup pings every 5 mins and that's too free :). I have subscribed to both the service and will see how they are doing and carry on accordingly. Thanks for the immediate response.
