Browser-Powered Desktop Notifications Are Coming To Gmail

Now this is nice. If you're a heavy Gmail user you've probably installed some kind of desktop notification system ?�be it a browser extension, a separate Gmail app like Mailplane and/or Growl. But now, hot on the heels of launching a dynamic unread count in browser tabs, Gmail is launching something that doesn't require any downloads: built-in desktop notifications. A small banner on Gmail just prompted me to enable the feature, which works for both inbound chat and email messages (you can opt to receive notifications for all new emails, or just 'Important' ones as deemed by your Priority Inbox). Google is probably rolling this out gradually (there's no blog post yet), but I'm seeing it in both of my accounts.
