Show HN: ErrorTexts, simple outage alerts by SMS (errortexts.com)

I wanted a simple way to notify myself if one of my other apps was having any server or database issues, and the other solutions I found took much more time to set up than what I wanted to spend on it. I didn't want a simple health check, either, because my website would be up even if I couldn't reach my auth service or my database - I wanted to be able to send myself alerts tailored to particular scenarios depending on what the problem was.

So I built the thing I was looking for: a dirt cheap API that forwards any messages I send it to my phone as an SMS, effectively an outage-alerting API that I could sign up for and start using in 60 seconds or less. (Webhooks would be a strong alternative, but I wanted a solution that didn't require an app and didn't require me to go read about how to set up another new thing.)

Feedback welcome! No idea how to market things.
