There's very few people on the internet who I trust enough to give them complete control of my browser. Randall is definitely one of them, probably the top one.

Browser-based notifications are easy to turn off, and it's probably the only way to get a message on a desktop PC without subscribing to email or using RSS. Also you don't need to install an app on your phone.
