As I announced last night, we now have an extension for Google Chrome that will send notifications to your browser, regardless of if you're online or not (so long as it's open). It can be found in the Chrome Web Store at the following link: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/b...o/related?hl=en

Here's my original post from last night:
QUOTE
Alongside the new site, we're going to be launching a new browser extension for Chrome, called GPXPlus Notifier. It does essentially what the name indicates - checks the site once a minute and sends you any notifications you have, be in eggs ready to hatch, Daycare eggs, and so on, using a feature that Chrome has called desktop notifications - notification windows that will appear overtop of other windows, regardless of what you're focusing on (if you've used the feature on GMail or other sites, you'll know how this works), like so: http://c.jslater.ca/1c3L0x1x1g1Y38450T17. Because it's an extension, it'll be active regardless of if you're on GPX at the time, and there'll be a few things you can configure as well, such as to send notifications only if you're not on the site, and how long before they auto close. Before anyone asks - yes, this will potentially come to other browsers, but at present it'll be Chrome-only since Chrome's currently the only browser that actually supports them, yup yup.

If you have any suggestions or notice any bugs, feel free to report them here, yup yup. happy.gif

Update: I've updated the extension; Updates include:

- New notification types, for multipliers, the weather, SWSH, Poke Hunts and Scavenger Hunts
- The ability to disable whichever notification types you like
- Improved notification display
- Improved options display
- When the new site is available, both the options and notification display will also draw on whatever your on-site skin is

Chrome should automagically update for you within the next day or so (I think, I'm not sure how often it checks for updates), otherwise, you can also manually force it to update from within the Extensions portion of the settings, yup yup.

UPDATE (July 25/2012): GPXPlus Notifier is also now available for Safari! It works a little bit differently since Safari (currently) doesn't support notifications, however the functionality is otherwise identical to the Chrome version. It can be found here, yup yup.

Sweet! Might make me pay more attention to my party's status. Haha.

Hopefully there's options on what it displays.

Yaaaaay, amazing~

You know what would make this even more amazing (mind you, I doubt this is possible.. or easy if it was) if it could have your username come up when it alerts you.. so if you have two Chrome accounts it will let you know which account that's logged it's for. But minor thing~

Neat! It'll be weird balancing two browsers, but at least I have a laptop that won't meltdown for trying.

Awesome option


EDIT:

Was just notified of an egg ready to hatch. Works rather nicely. I'm glad the popup shows up in the bottom right corner instead of at the top.

Cool thanks

Edit: Only thing I've been annoyed about is how it tells you how many interactions you have made that day whenever you stop clicking after a few seconds or so. Even if you just click your new party of fresh eggs it tells you. If we can disable notifications about interactions that would be great.
