OS X Notification Center in Safari 5.2

OS X Mountain Lion adds Notification Center for managing alerts. Just like growl, but better.

Safari 5.2 exposes HTML5 notifications API to sites. Every site need to have permission for showing notifications.

Specification is very new and completely different from older version Chrome has. Developer doesn't have to watch for complicated NotificationCenter.

The syntax is very simple:

var notification = new Notification('Title', 'text');
// The event part is optional.
notification.addEventListener('show', function() {
  setTimeout(function() {
    notification.cancel();
  }, 2000);
}, true);
notification.show();
