Knowing when the EA is NOT running?

 

I am trying to figure out a way to know when the EA is NOT running. Preferably, I would like to get a text message when for some reason, the EA is not functioning.

I have figured out how to send out a text from the EA at a regular interval when it is running, but after a while, all those text messages are annoying, it would be better to know when it is not running smoothly.

So far, I can create a file in the experts/files directory with a time stamp, but I don't know how to either send it out to the web and have something else read it, or what. I'm stuck. Does anyone have some ideas?

Thanks
