Thanks absorbation, the TITLE is fine, because the feature of the application includes notifying about what i want, as well as being a session notifier. Call it what you wish, people know what it is.
The title is NOT fine.... and the majority of people do NOT know what it is. Otherwise this wouldn't have been such an issue in the past years and it wouldn have been an issue recently...
The sole fact that people insist in calling this a window notifier only proofs that it IS an issue and that people do NOT know what it is. (and only stating it isn't a window notifier in the toppost isn't going to help much; moreover, why on earth do you wanna call a tool X while you state in the first post it isn't X but Y.)
If you call it a window notifier it WIL NOT WORK and you activly misinform people.... A car which only starts half the time isn't a working car either.
You also don't call Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, eventough both can make tables and you can write letters in both.
And cloudhunter, people know it by this name because:
1) It DID work in the PAST
2) People are MISINFORMED
Both reasons why such tools should NOT be name like that again.
Calling this a window notifier or syaing it can't be named whatever he wants, only shows pure ignorance and lack of knowledge about the subject.
I really really really am flabbergasted at the ignorance of this and the lack of ability to see that this is history repeating itself again. And who can fix the shit afterwards? yes, the helpers on forums...
It is that hard to call things by its name? Is it that hard to actually inform people about the right usage of this? Or is it pure ignorance and a popularity contest?
