I kind of like feeding notifications to an xmmp (jabber) group
conference (easy to set up with openfire). When you reconnect a client
it gives you a screen of earlier messages that you might have missed.
Email is even better at queuing missed notifications but having to
delete them is annoying and it is not as flexible as a jabber client in
terms of letting whoever wants to watch at any particular time get the
messages.
