Ureka.Social: Audible & Desktop Notifications Added - Plus General Notification Optimisations.

Hey everyone,

A few new features and improvements are now live at ureka.social.
I recently announced an improved notificatins system on the site. It had a few areas that needed improving, so it now has an extensive caching and multi-tab tracking system to better manage the way notifications appear across different open tabs. No doubt it needs a bit more fine tuning, please let me know your experiences in the comments below.

Even more exciting, we now have both optional audible and OS desktop notifications. As far as I am aware, Ureka is the only Hive site to support these on Desktop machines.

There are a variety of sounds to choose from and each type of notification has a default sound assigned. By default, all these notifications are disabled.
To activate them, visit the notifications settings page (via the cog icon in the notifications popup) and you can then configure them as you prefer.

Desktop notifications will appear on Windows, Mac & Linux systems (in general). You should see useful info/icons in them and also be able to click them to open the relevant item in ureka.

All feedback is appreciated. Stay tuned for more updates soon!

Wishing you well,
Ura Soul
