    ^ I think I've identified our resident click hater. NOTE: I'm sorry for this post, I couldn't resist and I'm a weak man.

      It drives me nuts because I don't use it. I see the number there as "tasks" and I'm always behind on those. Right now I'm up to 28 - I'll never get that in before lunch. Truth is the new feature has been a trigger for multiple anxiety attacks over the past two days. I keep a paper bag at the ready for breathing regulation. I'll be fine.

          You can actually set what you should be notified about. I never get that red box every time someone replies to my posts.

                I spammed little messages like that over the board a couple of weeks ago. They were all in this form: ^ I think I've identified our resident [insert topic] hater. It got some people upset so now any time I do that I usually get several univotes. :-D

                  i don't use that sequence. what it is a bright red box that tells me i have something that needs attention. but i've already received that information from email notifications. so, for me, it's just a bright red box - a box which takes me five clicks (red box, view all, select all, mark read, back to lounge) to get rid of. in other words: put a 'clear all' button right on the drop down!

                    My problem with it is that I already get the information as an email - so now I have 89 notifications that I am pretty sure I have seen all of before. And if I shut down the email notifications, I have to remember to refresh the page and look. Email reminds me to do something because Outlook goes "you have mail" (some of which is work related rather than CP).

                    I don't have access to my email at work, so it comes in handy there.

                      Anyone notice the little red box next to your name at the top of the screen?? Pretty cool little feature! It makes it much quicker to get to those messages you want to reply to. I'm likin' it. Thanks Chris!

                      Yes, I have found the notification box to be very useful. :)

                      Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

                        I like the idea of the "Clear All" button. Hey, Chris, you listening?
