Interesting. What do others think?

My thoughts

a) Yes I'm not a designer, but isn't this a rather bleak design? I  
miss colors and eye candy :) I also miss visual cues such as pajamas  
strips to make it easier to read e.g. lists.

b) I also miss status color codes in the overview list so users with  
glance can see services that have problems such as in http:// 
www.tildeslash.com/monit/doc/shoots/monit_httpd.gif

c) What is the rationale for putting everything on one page? It is an  
interesting idea and I like it, not only because we can compete with  
the http://worlds-highest-website.com/ but because it is simpler to  
implement and may be faster to browse.
