About

Stack Exchange Notifier is a handy extension for Google Chrome browser that displays your current reputation, badges on Stack Exchange sites and notifies you on reputation's changes. You will now get notified of comments on your own posts (questions and answers) and of any comments that refer to you by @username in a comment, even if you do not own the post (aka mentions). All StackExchange sites are supported.

Code

Written in Java, Google Web Toolkit under Eclipse Helios.
Stack Exchange Notifier uses the Stack Exchange API and is powered by Google App Engine for Java.

Changelog

I will be porting extension to not use app engine back-end due to some limitations. New versions of the extension will be making direct calls to Stack Exchange API right from your browser. Please do not expect new versions of the extension any time soon. Sorry.
Read more about limitations here http://stackapps.com/questions/1713 and here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3949815
