BGP On Host

Has anybody heard of making a webserver redundant using BGP?  That is, if I
set up 2 machines on different ISP's, with exactly the same content on them
(mirrored).  If both hosts are up, the traffic is routed to the closes
server to the person making the request.  Otherwise, if one server is down,
traffic is automatically re-routed to the other box.
