Desktop Notifications for Chrome Overview

A design document posted on the development of Google Chrome suggested that a notification system office Chrome will allow Google to know when making downloads, web sites need attention, and allow developers of extension to creatively capture the attention.

No evidence of screencasts to ogle or test pilot, but he seems to have a system in place to allow placement would Toast "on the screen of a user when certain events occur. Curiously, the documentation states that if the system Growl is installed on a Mac, and Linux is a desktop system using dbus notifications (aka libnotify) Route Chrome their notifications through these channels. There is no indication what will happen on Windows or Mac-Growl DE, but it is interesting sign of things to come.
