Another great way to get notifications on your phone is to use your carrier's email-to-SMS gateway. For example, on T-mobile it is [email protected].

If you don't want to set up nagios, you can create a quick monitoring solution with cron along these lines:

    */10 * * * * nobody curl -sSfm 10 http://www.example.com || mail -s 'www.example.com is DOWN' [email protected] < /dev/null
This assumes you have working email delivery on the machine doing the checking.
