Snarl is a notification system inspired by Growl for Macintosh that lets applications display fancy messages on the screen with the minimum of fuss - no complex code, libraries or other middleware required. Unlike other forms of Windows notification, Snarl does not hijack the current focused window, nor does it force the taskbar to be visible. Notifications can either be cancelled by clicking on them, or left to disappear automatically if ignored for a period of time. Messages are extensible too: Snarl will notify the application which displayed the message if the user clicks it. Probably best of all is that Snarl can display several messages at any one time; new messages are simply displayed alongside existing ones. An application can display any number of messages, and can update the content, icon, and time the message appears for of any particular message at any time and explicitly remove the message if required.

Edit
cant wait for more apps to be supported!
Microsoft should learn from applications like this.
Epic win right here. Always loved Growl on the mac. Thank goodness Full Phat made this! =]
I wish more apps would utilize this program's great functionality.
A wonderful addition to anyone's setup.
Starting today, there's BETA version available for Windows users!
Visual Basic apps are bad mmmkay. Not very modular, themes are ugly. Could be good with a bit more refinement.
Yay! Finally a notification system for PC! It need some more polish, but it is quite usable. CLI client makes it easy to integrate with other programs as well.
