TweeterFall - Notifications

In TweeterFall, when a new tweet is received, we notify the user about that tweet via desktop notifications.  If you use Chrome and Gmail, you’ve probably seen notifications pop up when you receive a new mail, or about an upcoming appointment.  The Desktop Notifications API allows script to request a small toast to appear on the desktop of the user. The contents of the toast can either be specified as iconUrl/title/text strings, or as a URL to a remote resource which contains the contents of the toast. They’re part of the WebAPI spec, though still in early draft, and so far only implemented in Chrome.
