I like the overall form of the letters a lot. Did you intend for it to have slightly blurred edges? I feel like its not 100% crisp, but it could be my eyes playing tricks on me
I love your style - everything you do is elegant and effective.
I agree with @scott kisloski about the blurred edges - it's not very crisp, and this is especially evident in looking at the light-on-dark and dark-on-light in close proximity.
What typeface is that? It looks a little like ink bleeding into paper... I like it, but I'm not sure how well it works for a network monitoring service.
@Jordan - The blur probably comes from the fact that there's not a single straight edge in any of these glyphs. The typeface is Averia, look it up, it's an interesting story. And thanks for the kind words, appreciate 'em.
@Alex - Averia is fascinating; I can't believe that escaped my notice until now. Here's the story for anyone else who's interested: http://iotic.com/averia/

In the process of changing the name from Notwerk to Pipemetrics. Here's a first stab at the logo.
What do you guys think?

@scott - Must be the rasterization. Crisp is easy to arrange for though :)
@Ketan, @Mike - thank you, gents. Glad to hear that.
