It is a notification application that works with applications that are configured to be able to do so. So, for example, with Adium, you can have audio notifications for events. With Mars Edit, you can get audio notifications for uploading a post successfully, etc. Dropbox will let you know if files are added or removed from your public folder. Again, though, the application has to work with Grow, but it is a handy thing to have. Take Care John D.
