This probably shows how many are actually in fear of their site's unavailability! I've been through so many of those hosts mentioned here, which appear in the top of the results; the fact is their service is often not acceptable. Or else why would we need to switch from one to another over the last 7 years?! I've subscribed to 5 different uptime measuring services--includng mon.itor.us. The numbers are more or less consistent. I feel you've done a great job with the way you have interpreted the results.

ISP stands for Internet Service Provider. I.E. where you get access to the internet from. AOL is an ISP, the company I work for which provides True Broadband service is an ISP. What you are all talking about is web hosting, domains, networks. All of these are useless without a place to access the internet from. I also work for a web design company which incidentally would never work without an ISP, the Internet Service Provider. Pass this on to your other bloggers so they don't get caught up in trying to "fit in" and talk the talk. Simply change all your instances of ISP to domain, web site, or Intranet, or whatever else you speak of to make it sound more like you know what you're talking about.
