Are there plans to have notifications within treehouse? I usually end up disabling e-mail notifications when they get too noisy.

1,927 PointsRyan, others have asked for this, too in other threads. It seems that they'd like something akin to Facebook's notification button: the little blue globe at the top that is marked with a red [1] when there's an update to a topic that you're a part of. Am I right Jody?

Courses Plus Student 5,497 PointsJust some sort of widget in the top right that would notify users of posts that were responded to. If categories are added it will be very useful to see at a glance if someone posted to a topic you are following. A notification center could be useful for other areas of the site as well. Badge unlocks, content updates, etc.

Courses Plus Student 5,497 PointsI like the way github does it, and it would be much easier than the way facebook does it in real time. I don't care if it's not real time, it can update on refresh.

In the bar there is a simple widget that changes color to let you know you have notifications.

I think It'll be nice to have a notification center!
