To answer question two first. The widget is fetching the status information from Montastic. They have a simple API (or rather a URL) where the widget can query status. The API returns 0 if all is ok, or the number of alerts triggered if something is wrong. This is the one the widget is using. There is also a more advanced API (http://montastic-wiki.metadot.net/api) that can return individual server status. I am no longer a Montastic user (I've moved to Monitis which fits my needs better) so I'm not going to develop this widget further. But anyone is welcome to modify it and add features.

Suggestion: 1- See the status of each individual server the user is tracking. I can imagine something like an airport flight panel: 2- to see if the widget itself can get the information from the Montastic regards Hi
