I built a similar tool called GeoPeeker (http://www.geopeeker.com) that does this as well, but does so from a number of different geographic locations. Handy for trouble-shooting DNS and CDN issues. I too submitted it to Hacker News but alas, it found no love. C'est la vie!

Well of all the people that posted links to alternates yours was the only one that worked. Great app and nice execution.

Thanks! You've no idea how much I appreciate the kind words. I've put a good deal of work into it, and have a number of new features currently under development.

Great job, but for the one thing I think it would be useful, it is not.

I built this website (www.portacomprimido.com.br or www.pillorganizer.co) in Portuguese and translated to english. It is supposed to check your browser's language and serve the proper language - portuguese for PT-BR, english for all others (doesn't matter which URL you use, both are the same website).

As I not very sure of my coding skills, I wanted to check it, so I asked a friend of mine living in the USA to check it for me. I thought your website would be a easier way to check it, but it is not. All locations show the english version, even the ones supposed to be from "Sâo Paulo, Brazil". If you can correct this, it would be a nice feature.

Thanks for the feedback Soneca. I'm currently working on a feature that will let you change your user agent and language to address this issue. This, and other new features will be hitting GeoPeeker in early November.

Very nice project. Here are some ideas for premium features:

-Change monitor. If images stop matching, issue an alert.

-More locations in general. Obvious additional server costs.

-Screenshots by user agent; iOS, Android, IE, Firefox, Chrome.

-Screenshots by other variables. Is a particular ISP injecting ads? etc.

Change monitor/alerts would be useful for detecting problems traditional monitor tools may miss. Additionally may be useful in contractual situations where another party is employing cloaking. E.g. I bought a static button banner and the seller is switching it out on me.

Premium features are being worked on as I type this. The one I'm most excited about will be the ability to schedule 'peeks' at a site. Load times, pings, email notifications and browser agent tweaks will be also be included. I'm also toying with providing html/js/css file diffs over time. So much to do!

Great site and thanks for sharing. http://Site2Pic.com also mentioned in this thread works just fine.
