A non-trivial percentage of the Internet is in some way or other dependent on things like Google Analytics/maps/etc, Facebook likes, Twitter recent tweets, etc, such that if any of those services are not available the site fails to load, either correctly or sometimes at all. The same is true in many causes for javascript/etc libraries being loaded from 3rd party sites like Google.
I wonder what percentage of large website operators whose site designs have such external dependencies have had it occur to them to include those external services in their monitoring systems?
