For those who need a quick test or can't be bothered to install Smokeping.

Few words from the dev:
Too long, don't read:
- Go to http://gfblip.appspot.com/
- It should work on any PC, laptop, tablet, phone, or iPod with javascript and HTML canvas support (which means almost everything nowadays).
- X axis is time. Y axis is milliseconds of latency.
- Green blips are your ping time to gstatic.com (a very fast site that should be close to you wherever you are).
- Blue blips are your ping time to apenwarr.ca ("a site on the Internet"). It should be slower than gstatic.com. How much slower depends on how lucky you are.
- Red blips mean something sucks.
- A good Internet+Wifi connection should have no red blips. And lower latency is better than higher latency.
- We send blips out as fast as they come back, up to 100 per second, so you can notice very small variations.
- If you watch the blip output while you do different things (switch wifi networks, start Youtube videos playing, walk around), you can immediately see what impact that change has on the quality of your Internet connection.
