[Ayatana] Mumbles Brings (More) Growl-Like Notifications to Linux
I am sure many of you have already seen this, I for one have not. Seems like it would be of interest to those working on notifications... http://lifehacker.com/5293943/mumbles-brings-more-growl+like-notifications-to-linux ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Seems like it would be of interest to those working on notifications... http://lifehacker.com/5293943/mumbles-brings-more-growl +like-notifications-to-linux There is an interesting point here: growl is a osx app, and it allows clicking on notifications. Ubuntu does not allow this, aiming to improved usability, and in that page the author also complains that ubuntu notifications can't be clicked while mumbles can. Now it's hard for me to explain this in written english but, do you remember the time when linux users told osx users that the mac was featureless? And they responded it's because of usability? The student getting better than the master it seems :) V. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Gnome notifications (on Ubuntu at least) are going the other way around... Didn't Mark say he wanted Ubuntu to be as (good looking and) usable as a Mac? ;-) Vincent ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
