Until recently I was using a program called statnot to intercept dbus messages and update the dwm status bar with the content of that message. I've also set weechat to play a sound when I get hilighted, which helps even more than the status bar updates. You can find my fork of statnot here: https://github.com/bbenne10/statnot
