Welcome to Timer2.appspot.com
Timer2.appspot.com provides this services :
- Monitor your website, if your website fails, you will be notified by an email.

Timer2.appspot.com has following features:
- Powered by GAE. It is based on the GAE's cron job, urlftech and mail API.
- You can sign in to manage your own timers.
- The timer type can be a url fetching or an email sending .
- Since the service checks the timers ervey 5 seconds, the timer
would have 5 seconds delay.
- Parallel timers are supported. That is to say, timers can be fired at the
same time. Since the delay of url fetching, server side maybe receives
the events at diffrent time.
- When the service firing your url timer, your code had better return an
empty page. But if you have a heavy computing, you can also never return.
If your url is unreachable for some days, your timer's status will be set
to unreachable and
never be fired again, unless you change the status by hand.
- When using the monitor service, the continue times means the
error continually occurs times. For example, if this value is 3 and your website checked status
is OK ERR ERR OK ERR EER OK, the notice email will not be sent. If the check status is OK ERR ERR
ERR, the notice email will be sent.
- Timing email just can
be send once. After sent , the timer status is set to finished.
If you want send again, just change the timer's status to running, and
change its start time.
- If the start time is set to a past time, the timer will be run at once.
And the nextRunTime is set to now+interval.
- This website uses ajax, so make sure your browser support js.
- Timer2 app is enabled billing.
