Most operation systems have notification services that attempt to notify, if not inform, the user when a significant even has occurred. Such as? Hmm…
- Battery is low
- Your mother called
- You have a system update available
- You have a reminder set to check the eggs
Unfortunately there are some notifications which are a little less useful that others. Take this one that Kubuntu spits out every now and then. It has been niggling at me for some time.
“An application has crashed on your system (now or in the past)”. In other news:
- Why?
- What?
- Which?
- Who?
- When?
- Where?
It even says it is a “Helper”. Helping what? The user to become more confused?
A notification system should do something, like notify…
