Here's a relatively new and fresh perspective on it: https://github.com/ramnode/LookingGlass You can see it in action here: http://lg.nyc.ramnode.com/ looking glass without routing, indeed a new perspective :(
with a bit more coffee, perhaps i can expand a bit.
for widely distributed data plane probes (ping/traceroute/...), we have good alternatives, nlring, ripe atlas, traceroute.org, etc. as an op, nlring is my fave of the month as i can go from question to result in minimal typing and a matter of seconds.
'looking glass' has traditionally meant a control plane (routing) view. this is a rarer beast, and setting one up is often a bit crude.
Indeed. As with most things there are always more than one meaning, and of course even those change with time. I read into the OP's words that he was looking for a locally hosted capability that he could easily give out to his people in order to trouble shoot connectivity.
