I'm trying to measure the performance and availability of my internet
connectivity to the US backbone.

So, what high-profile sites are hosted in the East coast and West Coast?.

I'm currently using Java.com for USA West Coast (as it's in Santa Clara,
CA), and NYCT.com (NYC ISP) for East coast. But for coherency's sake I'd
prefer both to be part of the same company.

I wonder if there's any top-tier www sites that have separate servers for
US East and West coast, -it would help of course if those were identified
as such by its hostnames...

I know about Mae-East and Mae-West but AFAIK those do not run web servers I
can check with http...

Btw: to keep this somewhat on topic with this list, I find it surprising
that both Australia and South America are doing better wrt packet loss than
North America

was consistently in the red... :)
