This project is about monitoring network servers and reporting the status of them to Twitter. It is very simple and easy. Using Arduino ICMP library, the author could test a ping to the hosts and see if it was responding or not.
For this project below hardware and software is required. Very simple.
- Arduino
- An Arduino Ethernet Shield (W5100 based)
- Twitter Library

In order to use the Twitter library you will need to generate a Secret Token for your Twitter account – There are instructions on how to do this on the library page linked above. You will also need to place both the Twitter library and ICMP Ping library in your Arduino Libraries folder.
