NodePing is happy to announce our newest notification method – twitter direct messages. The ability to receive a twitter direct message is a great addition to our current notification system that already includes unlimited email, international SMS, and voice calls.
Twitter notifications are in testing at this point. They are available on all accounts so please do kick the tires and let us know how things work for you at support@nodeping.com.
You’ll need to follow @NodePing in order to get direct message alerts. Then add your twitter handle in your contact record and in your check’s notification section and we’ll send you a private and discrete ‘direct message’ (not an embarrassing public tweet) when that check goes down and again when it comes back up.
Let us know in the comments how this new notification type is working for you and what you’d like to see added next – instant message (IM), HTTP POST to url, carrier pigeon, etc?
