If you have a mac you can download Geektool hereprojects.tynsoe.org/en/geektool/download.php

You can get some good geeklets toowww.macosxtips.co.uk/geeklets/

Code:
#!/usr/bin/php
<?php

echo "\n";
$servers = array("nulledbb.com");

foreach ($servers as $server)
{
ini_set('default_socket_timeout', '05');
set_time_limit(5);
$f=@fopen('http://'.$server, 'r');
if ($f)
{
$r=fread($f,1000);
fclose($f);
  }
else
{
$r='';
}
echo $server.' is ';
if (strlen($r)>1)
{
echo "\033[0;32mONLINE\033[0;254;176;19m";
}
else
{
echo "\033[0;31mOFFLINE\033[0;254;176;19m";
}
echo "\n";
}
?>

when you put this into geektool it checks whether nulledbb is online

no all i needed to do was work with accuweather install a few fonts and some terminal commands

Cuz what Geektool is essentially is you put a shell object on your desktop and then put Unix commands into it set the refresh rate to 1 and it displays the output of those commands on your desktop and you can change the font too.
LOL
