A single program for all the event and notifications on your PC.
One of the applications that is most appreciated by Mac OS X users is
Growl, an
event notifier that has
support for an endless list of applications, so that when something happens in any of them, it make a window pop-up indicating it.
In its Windows version the development of the application has been taken on by
another development team, with the permission of
The Growl Team, that have created a tool that is as similar as possible to its twin sister.
Growl is a very useful to know when we receive a new email, a download finishes, when we have an event, when we are answered in an instant messenger client or when a video conversion is finished, to give a few examples. To tell the truth, it has so many uses as programs that can work with it, becoming a tool that
centralizes all the notifications that occur on our system.
There are some important applications like
iTunes or
Firefox for which
Growl for Windows doesn't offer native support, but if we visit its websites we will find
plugins that will help the application to understand them.
Growl has various different interfaces, but if we don't like any of them we can also visit the software's website and
download the new ones that are designed, that can actually be really nice.
Instantly find out everything that happens on your PC with this surprising tool, that has long been awaited for by Windows users.
Requirements: This
download also requires that you have .NET Framework 2.0 or above installed to work properly.
