The history definitely needs some work, since foursquare's API was down for a few hours yesterday and it doesn't reflect that.

Every time it checks, it should keep track if anything is down, and if something was ever down that day, it should reflect that.

Either they're not doing that, or they're not checking anywhere near enough (looks from twitter like foursquare API was down at least 4 hours).



If you click through you can get a timeline history that shows when a service was down. Maybe the history on the main page just reflects the status the service was in for the majority of the time each day. Either way, yes, that part needs some work.


Though I do remember that the first time I checked the site out, yesterday, I saw 4sq's api down. Not sure about the history though.
